Like another crosstown oil and gas exploration company based in Oklahoma City, SandRidge Energy (SD) is exhibiting the same shareholder inimical corporate governance practices.

The bad news is that SandRidge founder and CEO Tom Ward (also a CHK co-founder) continues presiding unchecked as an autocrat.
