Washington Post Plans to Become ‘Global’ Newspaper

New York Times: Jeff Bezos built Amazon into an e-commerce and computing powerhouse. Now his ambitions are more sprawling as he takes on ever larger civic and business challenges. Those diverse interests were on display on Tuesday when Bezos spoke onstage at the Code tech conference, where he commented on an array of topics, including workplace culture, privacy and his decision to buy the Washington Post in 2013. Bezos said he bought the newspaper because he wanted to make it into a more powerful national — and even global — publication.
