Credible
August 2, 2019
Mildly interesting piece from a credible source. Basically a short bill of particulars regarding the recent sale by the CEO of nearly two billion dollars worth of Amazon shares. A worthwhile read if this type of information is useful to the prospective reader. (Interesting aside: Forbes Magazine often used reference itself as the Capitalist Tool)

Great Context

The author provides great context around Bezos's recent share sell-off, including information about his past sell-offs and what he intends to use the money for. At the end of the article, the author interjects a bit of unnecessary speculation that Bezos is not as philanthropic as he should be, without providing any evidence to suggest that her statements are accurate.

This article provided great context to when and how Bezos sold the shares, his overall net worth, and why he sold as many shares as this in two prior instances. However, the last paragraph seems unconnected to the rest of the article and reads like a hit piece... Lost a star because of it. Unneeded.
