** Misreporting on Company Situation**

The company situation was misrepresented by portraying only two extreme options, either the immediate return of Sam without accountability or the company's destruction. People were driven to support Sam due to fear of job loss, financial implications, or retaliation from Sam for any criticism. Many were reluctant to voice opposition against Sam due to their past negative experiences with him. Additionally, Sam's track record reveals a history of problematic behavior in previous roles, indicating this situation wasn't unique to the current board dynamics.
