The Bombshell Bezos Twist

The fight between Jeff Bezos and the National Enquirer just got even uglier. Earlier this year, the tabloid got hold of text messages of the Amazon CEO that confirmed an extramarital affair which allegedly led to the end of his 25-year marriage. Now, in an unexpected turn, a private investigator claims that Saudi Arabia had access to Bezos's phone before the photos and texts were ever leaked. Andrew Mach speaks to Bloomberg News reporter Spencer Soper about how this new development raises the stakes of this global scandal.
