As Bud Light, once a beloved contender among the country's favorite beers, spirals down to the 14th spot, the repercussions resonate far beyond the brand itself.
A recent YouGov survey reveals the decline in Bud Light's ranking, casting it below competitors like Pabst Bue Ribbon, Miller Genuine Draft and Miller Lite. This seismic shift in popularity jeopardizes the livelihoods of the 65,000 people whose economic well-being is intricately tied to Anheuser-Busch InBev's success.
Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth has taken full responsibility for the controversial promotion involving transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney that caused sales to plummet. In an interview with CBS, Whitworth emphasized that he is ultimately accountable for the actions of the company, expressing concern for the people whose livelihoods depend on Anheuser-Busch.
"It's the impact honestly on the employees that weighs the most on me," he said.
Whitworth called on people not to punish the workforce but rather to attribute blame to him. He made it clear that he acknowledges the repercussions of the promotion and urged consumers to continue supporting Bud Light.
While Anheuser-Busch has attempted to downplay Mulvaney's role in its overall strategy, Whitworth confirmed that the company will maintain its partnerships without making any changes. He did not explicitly apologize for the collaboration with Mulvaney, despite some consumers demanding an official acknowledgment of the mistake as a prerequisite for restoring their patronage.

No quarter! This is war!
May they rot in Hell for harming children.
Learn to code.
Companies that succumb to a small percentage of the

>> Anheuser-Busch CEO Pleads For Consumers To Think Of The 65,000 Employees Impacted By Boycotts
Think about the 85,000 missing children your kind tends to dismiss, you sanctimonious POS
At what point will it be considered a microbrew?
LOL !
Explain to me how one would go about that?
Thanks. The circle of life.
“It’s the impact honestly on the employees that weighs the most on me,” he said.
Fire this f@g before any other layoffs !
We are not done yet.
Someone call Kid Rock and ask him to use something belt-fed for his next demonstration.
Why should I? Bud Light executives sure the hell didn’t.
Brendan Whitworth needs to resign. He’s way over his head. They need to bring in somebody else. Bud Light is probably dead. But it doesn’t mean they can’t change the name and attempt to bring that to the market.
“Anheuser-Busch CEO Pleads For Consumers To Think Of The 65,000 Employees Impacted By Boycotts”
That was YOUR job!!!
Trying to blame us for your stupidity is beyond the pale!!!!
Good ol’ Johnny Paycheck.
There is no boycott. You damaged your brand image.
The employees whose jobs are in danger have the woke advertising elites to thank for their predicament, NOT the customers who are boycotting Bud Light.
“Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth has taken full responsibility for the controversial promotion involving transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney that caused sales to plummet. “
Why is he still employed? He admitted he failed and destroyed the brand. No consequence for the man accountable while the rank and file workers lose their jobs.
It is long past time to resume using antitrust laws to break up the big corporations.
