Re: [DIYbio] Re: "Theranos, CEO Holmes, and Former President Balwani Charged With Massive Fraud"

Start with this during the time Holmes was coming into play. As a person who did take biotech and biology major classes and graduated all the biotech experts in my area never heard of Elizabeth Holmes until the scandal was released to the public.  Somehow Holmes is a complete unknown in cities where biotech is a big deal like South San Francisco, Vacaville and Davis areas. Nobody in Indiebio the Biotech accelerator or even the DIY Biology groups like Biocurious or any maker space group heard of her crew. The problem here was that the heat and backlash was focused on something else though.

Start a list of every journalist who wrote a nonobjective,
positive-leaning article about Theranos between the years 2005-2015.
That's ten years in which any of the journalists could have called any
typical university microfluidics or nanotechnology research lab in the
world to discount Theranos's vaporware statements.  Science reporters
are supposed to report science objectively, not inflate dangerous
hype.
