i feel like a day doesn't go by without us talking about amazon. tell us how sprawling they are. cope of amazon is uncommon. business school case studies are about focus, companies drilling down into one, maybe two areas they do well, but amazon has a dominant e-commerce operation. it has an extremely successful cloud computing business where it rents computing horsepower and other services to companies large and small, including the u.s. government. it has a video service, it delivers items in one to two hours, it owns the whole foods grocery store chain, it announced this health care joint venture with berkshire hathaway and j.p. morgan. its fingers are in many pots. jason: what makes it so? jeff bezos is arguably one of the most fascinating figures in business, in media, potentially in politics in an indirect way. is this bezos materialized? what is the connection? shira: part of it is that amazon for the last 15 years has broken all of the rules of modern corporate america and gotten away with it, and part of it may be that bezos has this long-term vision of the company. he ar

amazon. they're spending it. they're using amazon to buy these products. ttle frustrated that besos uses "the washington post." it's a sounding board of anti-trump propaganda. the bigger point here is, look, i don't see how the administration can say that amazon is hurting the postal service. without amazon, who uses the postal service anymore? i sort of agree there really isn't a need for a postal monopoly any longer. we have seen dramatic declines in people using the postal service because of e-mail and so on. maybe it's time to open it up to competition. i agree that -- i don't see where the administration's coming up with this number that somehow amazon is costing the postal service money. if anything, it's keeping the postal service afloat. >> to stephen's point about the "washington post," brad is this more personal for the president? stephen's calling it propaganda. i'm not sure if that's a fair assessment. but jeff bezos also owns "the washington post" and happens to be the richest man on the planet. could these be factors fueling the reason the pre

amazon or its ceo jeff bezos, who also owns the washington post. joining me now to talk about this, cnn correspondent alison kosik and nia malika henderson. alison, tell usamazon stock is doing right now. >> at the moment, aim zone shma are down. if you count the losses from today and yesterday, you're looking at $30 billion market value loss for amazon, based on that axios article and also based on that tweet today. investors are spooked. they're worried that if donald trump goes after amazon, either through antitrust enforcement or some sort of tax rule change this is going to really hit the company hard. i looke ed ed at the recent ann report. amazon did not pay anything in federal taxes, that's nothing new. a lot of companies, they don't pay federal taxes because that's just how our tax structure is. the other irony of this, amazon said in its annual report that it is going to be getting a $789 million tax cut, thanks to donald trump because of that tax reform package. that's a big irony there. the interesting thing here is, the president is going after the very company that he's handed a nice pretty wrapped gift to. >> why is amazon in the cross hai

amazon long before the election. unlike others, they pay little or no taxes to state and local governments, use our postal system as theirboy causing tremendous loss to the u.s. and are putting many thousands of retails are out of business. a couple of things here, there's no question amazon has put retailers out of business, but they pay taxes, almost a billion dollars in federal taxes last year. amazon has been good for the u.s. postal service. a lot of people believe they should charge amazon more to do it. to the charge of amazon using the postal service as delivery boy, that is their job. they are the delivery men and women in our country. and a word about the postal service as a whole, they do a generally incredible job day in and day out, in snow, rain, heat and gloom of night. paying 50 cents for a stamp to have a letter flown from new york to anchorage or from saginaw from san antonio is one of the last true bargains left on this planet. that is our broadcast for a thursday night. thank you as always so much for being with us and good night from nbc news headquarters here in new york. >>> this morning, an nbc ne

digital assistants which make use of a machine learning and smart algorithms to actually predict the behavior of their user the same thing can be said for you know services like amazon which use smart intelligence or artificial intelligence i should say to take a look at supply chain management to make sure the products and services you need are available before you even realize you need them what i actually think is more interesting when it comes to stephen hawking is he said artificial intelligence when we take it further down the road is going to change how capitalism works he predicted that artificial intelligence could change how we produce goods and services and actually take us to a post scarcity society that means people wouldn't actually have to work to make a living to make a living there be enough resources for everyone however he said we're not going to get to that position right now because human history has shown us that the one percent the people who own the means of production will most likely keep the benefits for themselves and just fire a whole bunch of employees so basically saying that the human factor is the flawed one and not the artificial in

amazon. that amounts to billions of dollars. the failing "new york times" or reports that the size of the lobbying staff ballooned and that does not include the "washington post" which is used as a lobbyist and should so register. his post office scam must stop. amazon must pay real costs and taxes now. i would point out that a sort familiar with this says when the u.s. postal service writes its delivery contracts including the one that it wrote with am by law they have to be written so that the u.s. postal service is profitable. on the issue of taxes the president suggesting that amazon is somehow scamming the u.s. postal service. there is a patchwork of state and local regulations that determine how much money has to collect in terms of taxes. and the point that the "washington post" is somehow doing the lobbying work of amazon is on its face false. so i reached out to amazon, to the "washington post," also to the u.s. postal service for reaction, richard. no one wanted to say anything about the president's tweets. we got varying degrees of no comment. i would point out though that in terms of policy the white house says it expects to take no actions whether in terms of t

president has tweeted before in august last year for example he put out a tweet saying that amazon was costing us jobs he also according to the accessory port has been speaking to friends and business men who reportedly have told him that amazon is killing the local shopping mall business the bricks and mortar type companies but there's also another reason which may be a little bit more personal trump is known to vehemently dislike amazon's owner jeff b.'s us who is also the owner of the washington post and todd trump has in the past put together both the washington post and amazon in vitriolic tweets and criticizing them so certainly it does appear to be largely personal based although we've just heard from the white house press spokesperson who says that no specific policies are being planned at the moment however she says the president has made clear that he's interested in creating a level playing field for all i can with the latest on that from washington d.c. mike thank you. a diplomatic dispute between chile and bolivia has come to a head of the international court in the hague bolivia a l

amazon by $2.5 billion? i don't think so. everybody watching this right now, alex, using amazon and don't want that outcome. remember, there's hundreds and hundreds of thousands of jobs in every state that amazon operates in that are based around the companies that sell on amazon. mr. trump, our president, has said i want jobs in america. i don't think he's going to attack. this is just more of what he does. i will say this. the economy is on fire and amazon is evidence of that. so, whatever else is happening on policy, it's working. >> okay. so, do you think this has more to do with a personal feud with jeff bezos? i mean, knowing the way the president operates there, do you think it's baecause he claims h has been treated unfairly by the washington post and that's why he's going after amazon? >> there you may have something. two behemoths, the president and the world's richest man. if bezos could take back the purchase of "the washington post," he probably would, i'm speculating now. this gets him involved in politics, which is partisan in nature. he has an arm's length relationship, as he must, with the

amazon. i know i used them. i'm sure a number of other viewers watching this have used them. true that amazon is a fierce competitor and a lot of shops that don't participate in their platform may suffer from that. but the thing you have to keep in mind is if you're looking at u.s. antitrust law, which it seems like trump is interested in levying against, again, a perceived political enemy, generally the way that our antitrust system works is that you have to show there is harm to the consumer. it's not clear that having low prices and having effects on potential competitors is necessarily hurting consumers. so, again, these criticisms seem to have very impure motives and are confused to boot. >> katherine, thank you very much for that explanation. >> thank you, wolf. >>> did president trump choose another cabinet member based on chemistry over qualifications? there are new questions about the new job his personal physician just received. >>> also a judge denying stormy daniels' motion to depose trump and his lawyer. >>> we're waiting for the president in ohio. stand by. it's

in fact, it's owned by amazon's ceo jeff bezos who used his private funds to on that newspaper. and the president seems to be making a connection here between the newspaper which often publishes unflattering stories about him and his administration and the company amazon which he now accuses of defrauding the u.s. postal service and also defrauding american taxpayers. on those two fronts, the president's accusations that the postal service is not getting its money's worth out of amazon is disputed by the post office which says the arrangement with amazon is for the most part mutually beneficial. it has an arrangement with amazon like it does with other bulk shippers to charge them less for shipping packages but that's a pretty standard thing and amazon is a huge chunk of the u.s. postal service's business. amazon does pay sales tax on most of the sales. they don't pay sales tax on third party vendors that use amazon as a platform. so factually questionable things in the president's tweets this morning. but what underlies it is this attack on the "washington post" media outlet tha
