Speculation; nothing has been announced.
However, the first interview by Greenwald was given to the Washington Post -- which Bezos just purchased.

Snowden provided material to both Washington Post and the Guardian, but it was the Guardian that chose to really dive into it and milk it all the way -- Washington Post hesitated. A lot of people are hungry for Greenwald giving them more Snowden leaks, the backer probably understands this.
The understanding with Greenwald is he's not afraid to piss off people -- if he gets more leaks in his hands, he's going to let the public in on it. It's hard to imagine Bezos getting himself into this kind of public hot grounds, so I think it's highly unlikely that Bezos is behind this.
edit: small grammar fix; thanks cpeterso
Did you mean "highly unlikely"?
I listened to his interview with CBC Radio(no one listens to CBC Radio), and he is just so articulate and calm.
His defence against the douche bag on CNN(OR NBC) was inspiring, this is what people should be taking example of.
