In recent times (5 years-ish), those three are about the most spectacular/ popular failures/ scandals (more of a scandal and less of failure in the case of Pao and Meyers) happened. Seeing that reddit is easily like the 2nd or 3rd most popular "social media" (with a loose definition of the term), is it a surprised an issue involving it would be popular on social media? And if any white male want to try starting a 10B fraudulent company, I have faith that HN will be dragging your name all over the place bashing you as well.
That said, when I read "really bad CEOs on social media" and tried to think of an example.... "Steve Balmer" comes to mind. I took the liberty of searching for just "steve balmer" on the HN's search. First article reads "Why Balmer failed", and this is a couple of link down: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6263205 .
Microsoft did NOT fail during his tenure as a CEO, and that is how he's judged. You might consider if your sampling is having a bias.
