I really liked the point made about how Carreyrou being an NYC-based investigative journalist (with a focus on healthcare, not tech) who is largely disconnected from SV has enabled him to approach this story in a way that SV tech journalists would be afraid to, because it could jeopardize their careers.<p>Carreyrou was part of a WSJ&#x2F;NYT team that received a Pulitzer last year[0] for a series of pieces on Medicare billing[1]. That&#x27;s one of the reasons why I&#x27;m surprised some prominent Valley personalities didn&#x27;t take his articles more seriously from the beginning[2,3] - he&#x27;s not some two-bit tech blogger with an axe to grind. There&#x27;s a world of difference between investigative journalists, like Carreyrou or Bob Woodward, and tech bloggers like Michael Arrington or Sarah Lacy.<p>0: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.poynter.org&#x2F;2015&#x2F;for-the-wall-street-journal-a-pulitzer-long-in-the-making&#x2F;337879&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.poynter.org&#x2F;2015&#x2F;for-the-wall-street-journal-a-pu...</a><p>1: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;graphics.wsj.com&#x2F;medicare-billing&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;graphics.wsj.com&#x2F;medicare-billing&#x2F;</a><p>2: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bloomberg.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;articles&#x2F;2015-10-19&#x2F;early-theranos-investor-remains-supportive-even-without-answers-ifydlf03" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.bloomberg.com&#x2F;news&#x2F;articles&#x2F;2015-10-19&#x2F;early-ther...</a><p>3: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=FzI763-NPug" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=FzI763-NPug</a>
