The Washington Post Co. has agreed to sell its flagship newspaper to Amazon.com founder and chief executive Jeffrey P. Bezos, ending the Graham family’s stewardship of one of America’s leading news organizations after four generations.
Bezos, whose entrepreneurship has made him one of the world’s richest men, will pay $250 million in cash for The Post and affiliated publications to the Washington Post Co., which owns the newspaper and other businesses.
Que Jeff Bezos, el dueño de Amazon, haya comprado uno de los diarios más emblemáticos del mundo tiene un significado. Solo nos falta saber cual es. A estas alturas, se puede salvar el periodismo tradicional? Sospecho que vamos a tener más de una sorpresa a partir de ahora.
