To me those two, taken together, are the nub of the question - did he fall or was he pushed.
I'd never heard of We Work until a piece by Nils Pratley on the Guardian a couple of weeks ago suggested that investment sentiment was turning against and that the CEO might be a problem rather than a solution.
A narrative that placings by outfits with new business models were not an overwhelming success for investors is legitimate reporting. TnE beat me to it with placing v now figures for ride hailing companies. Metro bank seems to be another example currently in the news.
I tend to agree that BBC coverage has been 'dumbed down' over years. Pretty sure that's part of a deliberate plan to make it more accessible. If you listen to archive reports that crop up now and again on radio/TV from that perspective you might wonder how far they were wholly comprehensible to a significant proportion of the audience.
