For those who don't feel like reading the whole thing, this is in reference to the Amos-6 mission in which SpaceX lost a Falcon-9 and an expensive satellite over a fueling catastrophe. Apparently the company tried to salvage their image and pushed a sabotage narrative which was frankly untrue.
I'm not sure it's entirely fair to say that "the company" pushed a sabotage narrative. I think the article makes it pretty clear precisely who at the company was pushing the sabotage narrative.
Hint: It was not Gwynne Shotwell :)
