Theranos-Style Fraud Has Become the Norm
An Atlantic essay argues that the kind of fraud Elizabeth Holmes committed at Theranos no longer stands out as exceptional in American life, suggesting it has become a routine feature of business and politics. The piece draws connections to Donald Trump and references Nathan Fielder, framing a culture in which overpromising and fabrication are rewarded rather than punished. Readers are debating whether the analogy holds or overreaches.
Why now: The article's provocative argument that Holmes-style deception is now normal in politics and business is sparking debate.
