Why we’re still so obsessed with Elizabeth Holmes - video
You Can See Everything, a documentary about the disgraced biotech company founder Elizabeth Holmes, has enjoyed a record-breaking opening in the US. It is a testament to how fascinated we remain by the convicted fraudster, but what is behind the enduring appeal?
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on Elizabeth Holmes as the subject of continued fascination, and both frame the piece as an explanation of that lasting attention. The Guardian US is the only one that explicitly mentions You Can See Everything, calling it a documentary and saying it has had a record-breaking US opening, while The Economist’s extract only identifies its item as a handpicked article read aloud from the latest issue.
