Everything you said sounds interesting, but my experience, as a scientist in a different field, is that media focused for regular non-expert people simply isn't going to capture those kinds of things. You need to find recent papers, review articles or maybe textbooks to get that kind of information, basically its going to be in documents targeted at experts in this field not lay people.
You are correct, and the problem with these articles is that they sound too much like a sales pitch and less like a responsible general-public divulgation article.
She may not go in detail about the items aforementioned, but she doesn't even mention once that the technology might have have possible dangers, and that one must exercise caution in its evaluation. The article its all about the potential benefits of the technology, without warning the public about its potential dangers.
She even mentions that "the FDA is so painfully slow, and so indifferent to human suffering. It takes, on average, eight years to get a new drug through clinical trials."
Yeah, those pesky thorough clinical trials, they are a hurdle on the return on investment.
