Kimberly White/Getty Images for Fortune Some things in life seem to last forever. Your new plant? Eh, not so much. Ketchup in your fridge? Oh, yeah, that guy's likely good to use for months. Also in this category? The world's obsession (fascination? fixation? all appropriate words...) with Theranos founder, Elizabeth Holmes. Since the March 18th release of HBO's Holmes-focused documentary, conversation about the disgraced Silicon Valley exec has continued to be very much alive and very much well. (And I am very much here for it.)In fact, just yesterday Hulu ordered a limited series about Holmes' rapid rise and equally rapid fall, bringing the list of Holmes-focused projects to a whopping number five. But, a catch: not all of these projects are created equal. Here is a definitive ranking of all the projects about the Theranos scandal from best to worst: 1.

Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb calls Mueller an ‘American hero’ and ‘class act’
John Wagner, The Washington Post Published 5:56 am PST, Tuesday, March 5, 2019 WASHINGTON - Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb said in a new podcast that he considers special counsel Robert Mueller to be "an American hero" and "a class act" and does not share President Donald Trump's oft-stated view that the probe of Russian election interference is a politically motivated "witch hunt." Cobb, who joined the White House shortly after Mueller's investigation began in 2017, departed in May last year as Trump and his surrogates took a more aggressive approach in trying to discredit the investigation. In an interview for the ABC News podcast "The Investigation," Cobb said he does not expect Mueller to show collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia and that he disagrees with the strategy that Trump and others, including his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani, have employed. "They have ratcheted up the public's concerns about the investigation and its legitimacy," Cobb said. … [Read more...] about Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb calls Mueller an ‘American hero’ and ‘class act’

Detroit News predictions: Michigan Wolverines vs. Wisconsin Badgers
The Detroit News Published 3:14 PM EDT Oct 11, 2018 Angelique S. Chengelis, Matt Charboneau, John Niyo and Bob Wojnowski of The Detroit News offer their predictions on the outcome of Saturday's Michigan vs. Wisconsin game at Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor (7:30 p.m., ABC/950 AM). Angelique S. Chengelis: Break this game down any way you want, but this is a big test for the Wolverines, the first since Notre Dame – although coming back from 17 at Northwestern could be considered a test, as well. Wisconsin's secondary has issues, so this could be a field day for Michigan quarterback Shea Patterson and his receivers and tight ends, Zach Gentry and Sean McKeon. The Badgers haven't had a great pass rush, a benefit for an improving Michigan offensive line. The Badgers are tough up front offensively and will challenge the Wolverines' equally-tough defensive line. Can Michigan stop running back Jonathan Taylor? Probably not. But slowing him down is a possibility while the defense tries … [Read more...] about Detroit News predictions: Michigan Wolverines vs. Wisconsin Badgers
