PBS released Amazon: The Rise and Reign of Jeff Bezos. It’s a powerful FRONTLINE documentary about the reign of Amazon, and Jeff Bezos’s designs on unprecedented dominance.

According to FRONTLINE, “Jeff Bezos is not only one of the richest men in the world, he has built a business empire that is without precedent in the history of American capitalism. His power to shape everything from the future of work to the future of commerce to the future of technology is unrivaled.”

Over the last year, producers at FRONTLINE have drawn heavily from ILSR’s research and interviews with co-director Stacy Mitchell.
