The biggest takeaway from Theranos is that investigative Journalism is not dead. John Careryu (sp?) single handedly dug up the truth in a non disparaging factual manner and went up against a team of ruthless lawyers threatening to utterly destroy him, the Journal, and his source. That source was a 24 year old hero whose parents put up their house as collateral just to help their son do the right thing when he had no monetary gain from it. After learning so much about the bullshit Theranos did, every nail that pushes it further into the ground has given me a justice euphoria high. I'll be following this until it's end
