This photo from Bloomberg photographer David Paul Morris has been used in several dozen stories about Theranos over the last 11 plus months.
Sometimes HN tries to be too clever and I don't mean to direct that at you but basically every sibling and cousin comment in this subthread.
HN Challenge: next Theranos thread don't upvote comments about CEO's appearance.
- protomyth 10y agoI actually don't care about her appearance, and it's not being too clever. Editors pick specific photos for reasons often subconscious ones. You can look at a photo used in a story and see the basic prejudice of the editorial. Ignoring information provided is a poor way to evaluate the source. That the same photo is used often is a data point. Thinking everything is about a woman's appearance in a photo ignores a whole class of information. Your HN Challenge is a call for ignorance which I'll skip.
