The Big Picture: Seattle and Amazon screwed the homeless. • The homeless lost: The nearly 12,000 homeless people living in King County are worse off because Seattle and Amazon got in a pissing match. Seattle and Amazon could have then trumpeted their success as a model for how liberal cities and tech companies plan to deal with the homeless epidemic they've helped to create. What Sorrell Said, via WSJ's Ben Mullin:• "Facebook and Google say they are tech companies -- they are media companies ... Amazon will be the third force." • Disney "has a real shot" of competing with the big tech companies, especially if it succeeds in acquiring 21st Century Fox.
