Bezos-Sanchez Venice Wedding Sparks Celebrity Arrivals, Protests

Bezos-Sanchez Venice Wedding Sparks Celebrity Arrivals, Protests

    The Spin

    This wedding represents exactly what's wrong with modern Venice - billionaires treating the entire city like their private playground while locals struggle with housing costs and overtourism. The 90 private jets alone show the environmental hypocrisy of the ultra-wealthy. Venice needs affordable housing and services for residents, not more spectacles for oligarchs.

    Venice has successfully hosted major events like G7 summits and celebrity weddings for years without disruption. This brings millions in economic benefits to local businesses, creates jobs, and provides invaluable global publicity for Italian tourism. The protesters represent a tiny minority trying to capitalize on Bezos' fame.
