No shit Sherlock.

So why does a dude like Jeff Bezos, who likes to make lots of money fast, "invest" in a white elephant like that?

I submit to you that it is because he wants to use the Post to manipulate public opinion in such a way as to enhance his profits elsewhere, ie his Amazon.com Sweatshop Empire.
