John Carreyrou is a hero, he may have saved many lives by exposing the Theranos scam. The whistleblowers at Theranos were heroes too, they went through a lot and risked a lot to get the truth out, when they could have just kept their mouths shut and kept collecting a paycheck, or they could have just dropped it and walked away when the Theranos lawyers came after them, but they didn’t.

[@7ish4m]

Journalists like him deserve a lot of good stuff. Don't know what though lol.

Huge lesson to learn. Just because somebody is a celebrity, it does not make them a genius. The board members are at fault also because they pushed the product and had no idea what they were talking about. Wise men are not always right.

It should have been a red flag to investors how you have such an illustrious board and all of them have no background in medicine or biotech.

Reminds me of the song “Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves”. The men would come around and lay their money down.

[@haddenindustries2922]

No I don't see or understand why draper invested in the friend of a daughter just because she was the friend of a daughter or because the families were friends...business is business people and investing "just because..." is not good business.

[@beep7]

Why glorify these criminal stories in movies?

[@languagequesters3315]

On the contrary, expose them for what they are. It's more like public shaming than any form of glorification. The real heroes here are John and the whistleblowers, and I'm sure the movie would depict that since it's based on the book and John is involved in the writing.

[@soyousaidyouwanttoblankher1534]

Why would they want to make a movie about her...It would obviously be boring as hell not like wolf of wall street....

[@CHMichael]

Eventually it will work. Whatch some star trek episodes. Now we are using tablet computers. Startreck did not invent the I pad and make billions on it.

[@PungiFungi]

Biology and technology are vastly different. For Theranos’ concept to work , they have to discover a form of universal reagent that will detect all these things they are looking for in human blood, instead of shrinking down current technology into a box which ultimately violates the laws of physics. Then again, most tech in Star Trek find a way to ignore such laws, like the existence of sub space which allows faster than light speed travel.

[@breeze787]

Theranos failed to persevere through the scientific rigor of medical research. Why is it that we as americans don't understand that the truth about life is ascertained through science. Theranos failed to adopt the scientific inquiry & rigor for the truth that science and its methods provides. Elizabeth Holmes quit Stanford in her sophomore year. I'm not surprised that she lacked the understanding of science to accomplish her ambitious goals because she never stayed in school long enough to find out. You can tell throughout all the years of the Theranos research that Elizabeth Holmes was the wrong person for the job. She was NOT a science person. She was a con artist plain and clear just a "snake oil salesman".

[@BeccaLozierTrumpet]

it's so frigging amazing to sit here and listen to all these "so called experts" with their seriously annoying voices, who seem to know everything that went down and how the business run & funds raised after the event. How do we think Pharmaceutical Companies come up with new products and drugs etc.....? I bet you someone re-engineers this devise and it works in the future. What will we be saying then? Just putting it out there. My personal view she ain't done anything that ALL Companies don't do....only difference her project failed hence all the demonising.......Peace to all.
