I'm not justifying extortion, just reminding people of Bezos hypocritical statements.

He was piling pain into Theil but now the shoe is on the other foot his tough talk has a different tune.

He should have supported Peter / Hogan against the "everything you do in private is in the public interest" mentality. Especially when he owns a newspaper and a media network!

There’s no hypocrisy here. If you have a personal issue with Bezos or his success, that’s fine. Expecting Bezos to tell newspapers or media what to report sounds like something Donald Trump would do. Good on Bezos for not doing that.
