National Enquirer: Bezos' girlfriend's brother 'single source' for reports

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The publisher of the National Enquirer on Sunday said its reports on Amazon Chief Executive Jeff Bezos’ private life were based on information from a single source, the brother of Bezos’ girlfriend, Lauren Sanchez.

The statement from American Media Inc. followed publication by Bezos security chief Gavin De Becker of an article in the Daily Beast in which he said the government of Saudi Arabia had accessed private information from Bezos’ phone.

While De Becker said in the article that there was “high confidence that the Saudis had access to Bezos’ phone,” it was “unclear to what degree, if any, AMI was aware of the details.”

Nevertheless, AMI released a statement saying its reports on Bezos’ affair with Sanchez were based solely on information provided by Michael Sanchez, “who tipped the National Enquirer off to the affair on Sept. 10, 2018, and over the course of four months provided all of the materials for our investigation.

1. Never trust a proud republican

2. why should this be more believable than anything else from The National Enquirer?

Which party has more credibility here?

4. Agreed

I only believed The Weekly World News which has sadly left the newsstands......

3. Well that certainly sounds like 3 people who will never speak to each other again!

What Jeff did was gross and stupid (it was dick pics, right?) but what Michael did to his sister Lauren was really shitty. I envision a future where every family get-together is going to involve a call from Lauren making sure she and her brother are never in the same room on the same day. And where every other member of the Sanchez extended family is going to wonder whether Michael is going to stab them in the back too.

This is like a Jerry Springer show only with lots of money. Ugh.

5. Yeah

Thanksgiving could be a bit awkward.......

6. Of course they would say that.
