In a “Saturday Night Live” sketch, the cities breezily wafted in with stars. Well, stars of a sort, I suppose.
Boston presented Casey Affleck (who concluded that LA was a better place for HQ2), Atlanta brandished tarnished TV cook Paula Deen, while New Jersey just sent Sen. Cory Booker all on his own.
Then there was Miami. What else could it do but let Pitbull do his thing?

Amazon’s CEO wasn’t entirely impressed by any of them.
He seemed, indeed, to be more moved by Alexa.
