Personally, I like the island idea the most.
Last year the WaPo lost $54 MIL, which of course was more than it lost the year before, and on, and on. I also don't quite understand the structuring of the Pension. There were some contradictory statements about that.
There were some of those financial calculations which stated that Bezos actually paid over $200 Million more than he should have. i.e. it should have gone for $50 Million.
Again, a bleeding wound!
Maybe I should modify that. A bleeding "cancerous" wound!
