The only thing that they can really show is utterly false is Yang isn't a hotheaded legbreaker and Pyrrha isn't a murderer (just guilty of manslaughter). But the damage is still done.

And that still doesn't change the fact that Ozpin & co can't keep the Grimm out, so they no longer feel safe. The fact that some evil saboteur planned for their defenses to fail is absolutely no comfort.

And Cinder hasn't even played all her cards yet. What if she told them the full truth? Atlas was doing shady shit: a killer robot girl is one thing, taking people's Aura and putting them into other things is even worse, and if they learned the truth about the Maidens and how Ozpin & co have been hiding all that from them, they'll probably be even more up in arms.
