Theranos CEO Elizabeth Holmes: Firing Back At Doubters | Mad Money | CNBC

[jimmyconway]

First, they think you're crazy. Then, they fight you. Then, they indict you. Then, they find you guilty. Then, you go down in history as a disgrace.

[emilkarpo]

Orange is going to be the new black for her

[Lommy]

Way worse than lying to investors, is that she didn't mind people getting FALSE blood test results.

[kariminyamu]

Impressed how well she’s portrayed in the Hulu docu-series - the voice, the mannerisms are spot on

[onemanschorus]

Holmes is wasting her natural talent. Instead of running this fraudulent company, she ought to be voicing a young Darth Vader in the next two Star Wars movies.

[julissa]

He is asking her close ended questions and she is answering them in an open ended manner without ever answering the question itself. It's insane. She is so calm and collected, great manipulator.

[joenoah]

She may not have finished college but she answers the questions like she graduated with a degree in BS

[robertfuentes]

She sounds like a 12 year old boy trying to sound 30

[marktwainlover]

Cramer: Yes or no. You prefer vanilla ice cream over chocolate. Holmes: We have been looking at the use of the cocoa bean and the vanilla bean in our proprietary studies, and even back in 2014 we discovered that....

[sweetlikechocothai]

Her low voice is suppose to sound masculine and powerful? But she comes across as a stoner surfer with a cold. Am I wrong?

[veronicaitch]

I once worked for a boss like that. Oh boy, you have no idea what they're capable of. His deception works so well like hers, he really did fool everyone. Only people who have got burned by him know the truth.

And throughout my line of careers, you won't be surprised by how common these fraud cases are. The whole world is filled with it. You just have to open your eyes big enough to see it.

[anma]

She should be a politician. She is fully qualified with skill to tell the lie she does not even believes.

[muradtalukdar]

First they think you're crazy, then they fight you, then they realise they were right that you are crazy.

[AaronEMorales]

I cant believe she never realized how laughable it is she tried to imitate the way Steve Jobs dressed. She couldn’t even invent her own style.

[Dilo]

If she and Zucc had a staring contest, their dead eyed gazes would cause a rip in the fabric of space and time.

[Mrbfgray]

She turned out to be less of a Steve Jobs more a bad Apple.

[countalucard]

Amanda Seyfried really nailed her character. She got all her speaking mannerisms down pat.

[prometheus]

"First they say you're crazy, then they fight you, and then you go to jail for running a bunco scheme"

[tonelocrian]

She's better suited as a politician, since she won't answer simple YES or NO questions

[marieb]

"First they think you're crazy"...first impressions are often right.
