American Media Inc. (AMI), the parent company of the National Enquirer, is launching a full investigation into extortion claims made by Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos in a widely shared Medium post last night.

Bezos used his post, “No thank you, Mr. Pecker,” to allege that the National Enquirer is blackmailing him by threatening to publish nude photos of himself, along with sexually suggestive photos of Lauren Sanchez, the news anchor with whom he has been having an affair. Some of the photos include “full-length body selfie of Mr. Bezos wearing just a pair of tight black boxer-briefs or trunks” and a “naked selfie in a bathroom... wearing nothing but a white towel,” according to his Medium post.
