it was probably masonite or some kind of hard board on the back of the tv

Sorry if I have to sleep at night I guess?

You sound just like a COVID denier, hope you realise that? "My experience is true, people who researched the subject and found sources from those in the industry are wrong. Let me show you with anecdotes instead of sources to back my point!"
