Quick answer: It is in the story you linked.
She specifically was objecting to the front cover where the Post used images of the 9-11 attack just for a political attack.
If this boycott was just over "disagreeing with" the Post she would never have waited this long. They have been attacking her hard for a long time.
People have to remember that right now AOC is still just worried about playing well in her district. On that level this was a shrewd move by her. None of us have heard about the bodega boycott in the past but apparently it effected a lot of her constituents.
AOC is still just 28. She will not qualify for a Presidential election until 2028. So she has a long time to thrive on her small local stage.
