Their piece [1] is pretty skeptical of Theranos. All of Theranos claims are quoted as claims, not fact. The article explicitly says Theranos doesn't say how they are achieving what they want, details a lack of independent evidence in support of their claims and quotes competitors explaining problems in Theranos' claims. He makes it clear that Holmes was a charismatic "big claims" type person.
He didn't blow the case open, but reported on it as well as he could have, given libel laws.
