Lots of press, most of it good, couple harsher criticisms:

Why this group is trying to stop Amazon from buying Whole Foods https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/07/17/why-t...

Amazon under probe for business in Iran https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/economy/amazon-under...

Is Amazon getting too big? https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/is-amazon-getting-to...

But yeah, overall hard to tell if this is genuine or just there to make WaPo appear less biased.

Jb would never police wp on a daily basis. It isn't worth his time and all but one is just simple reporting. There is only one oped that is fairly weak in it's take on Amazon's monopoly. None of these are real risks to his business.

Could the whole wp editorial board run a blind oped calling for the government to breakup Amazon's monopoly as the paper's official position?

As Amazon grows the threat of antitrust will probably get real and the center of that threat is Washington DC.
