Answer:

You could explain this using the B. Mean world syndrome.

Explanation:

The Mean world syndrome is an <em>error in thought</em> in which an individual thinks  <em>the world is a much more dangerous place than it actually</em> is because he/she has been long exposed to mass media.

In this case, we can see Martha watches <em>"quite a bit"</em> of television and mostly crime dramas. This long exposure has made her develop this syndrome and thus she believes that her city has a higher crime rate than it does.

The biggest problem would be that because there exists no structure within the team, chaos might erupt and productivity would decrease.
