Amazon founder Jeff Bezos went public Thursday with his ongoing dispute with the owner of the National Enquirer’s parent company American Media over the tabloid’s recent publication of Bezos’ private text messages. The scuffle started when the National Enquirer, owned and run by Trump ally David Pecker, published a 12-page spread on Bezos’ affair with former TV anchor Lauren Sanchez that included intimate texts between the pair. In a post on Medium on Thursday, Bezos outlined an outrageous and blatant blackmail attempt by AMI, which threatened to publish lewd selfies of Bezos as a reprisal if he didn’t disavow the reporting by the paper he owns, the Washington Post, into AMI’s politicized hit pieces and political support of the Trump campaign.
