Am I the only one who finds the name of the guy (Mr. Pecker) in charge of the National Enquirer to be apropos?

This is the same Mr. Pecker who bought the playboy model’s story of her affair with trump so that she couldn’t sell it to anyone else and he, of course, buried it for his buddy with their hopes that the sordid affair would never become known. Anyway, now the Pecker’s rag of a publication is threatening to publish incriminating photos and emails of Amazon’s Bezos if he doesn’t call off the journalistic investigation involving the National Enquirer/Pecker and the murder of the Washington Post’s journalist most likely ordered by the Saudi prince. It appears there is some kind of connection, most likely financial, between Pecker and the Saudis.

Anyway Bezos who owns the Washington Post, refuses to give into their blackmail and has released their demands, which they stupidity put in writing. He is risking having his naughty photos and emails exposed rather than give into extortion.

Side bar: Bezos is trump’s nemesis; Pecker is trump’s good friend; trump hates Bezos.

I fail to see the logic in your statement. Would you please explain?

The National Enquirer claims that they were going to run the photos, emails and story because they felt that Amazon stockholders needed to know that because of Bezos sordid behavior, it proved that his judgement wasn't what it should be to be running a company such as Amazon; but if he would just pull the Washington Post's investigation of the murder of their journalist as well as others, likely by their friends, they were ready to forget about the public's need to know . But, on the other hand they helped to hide trump's sordid behavior from those who he asked to vote for him to be president of the United States. Never mind that it would give those who knew the info that they were sitting on leverage over trump--they have proven they aren't above attempting blackmail and extortion to get what they want.

Ah, now the "parent company" of the National Enquirer say they are going to "investigate" their wrong doing...LOL LOL LOL

Also noted, is that they also threatened "to ruin" Ronan Farrow for his reporting of Pecker's "catch and kill" story benefiting trump.

I get a little uneasy when a company says they will investigate themselves.
