It is all the examples have in common: Being women.

That is all. Questionably relevant.




In the case of Elizabeth Holmes, I do actually feel the media played down the role of her partner in crime at Theranos, Sunny Balwani (a man) in all the fraud.

Also in the case of Holmes there wasn't anything there. It was all fraud. In the case of Sandberg, no doubt she's a supremely capable executive. But her image in the media was carefully curated by a PR campaign and totally not true, according to that article I frustratingly can't find now.

I am only talking about their public image, not what their jobs were.
