yeah, absolutely true. The tech press was (as typical) atrocious, not much more than the caricature of tech blogs in Silicon Valley. The mainstream press was slightly better in at least raising the questions. It was obvious for more than a year that something was up with them.
Holmes' complete inability to answer simple direct questions was a huge flag to me, and when I saw it in interviews I was really waiting for the press to pounce and it just never seemed to come.
"So you say you aren't approved to do any testing?" winkwink
"<typical long winded Holmesian answer>"
"moving on, what's it like being a woman running a startup?"
