Barry Ritholtz speaks with Dana Mattioli, an investigative reporter covering Amazon for the Wall Street Journal. Since starting at the Journal in 2006 Dana has produced a string of front-page articles on everything from the troubles at Kodak and J.C. Penney to Pfizer’s $150 billion deal to buy Allergan.
She was a recipient of the 2021 Gerald Loeb Award for Beat Reporting as well as the 2021 WERT Prize from the Women’s Economic Round Table. Additionally, she was part of a 2016 Gerald Loeb Award team win in the breaking news category and a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2020 for her team’s investigation into Amazon. She is the author of the book “The Everything War: Amazon’s Ruthless Quest to Own the World and Remake Corporate Power.”
On this episode, Barry and Dana discuss her path into journalism, the current era of antitrust enforcement, and Amazon’s growth into the powerhouse it is today.
