Amazon founder Jeff Bezos was ‘outbid’, not ‘blocked’ for NFL team: Report
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos was reportedly outbid by private equity billionaire Josh Harris for Washington Commanders, reports Financial Times. The report refutes previous rumours that the then owner Daniel Snyder ‘barred’ Bezos from buying the American football team. Instead, he was ‘simply outbid’.
What the report said?
“[O]ver the past 18 months, several of Bezos’s big Washington bets have been derailed, blocked or overtaken by events — culminating in the upheaval at the Post, where the billionaire’s handpicked chief executive, Sir Will Lewis, is facing a newsroom revolt triggered by his radical attempts to stem losses at the news organisation, which last year hit $77 [million],” the article reads.
