Not only did she raise a lot of money and good PR without a product, but she also kept the company running for so long that it's almost old enough to drink. I can definitely imagine worse CEOs on a board.
I mean, sure, the truth eventually came out. But I doubt "honesty" is at the top 10 priorities of most big companies.
