This is 100% confirmation that they were absolutely demolished sales-wise in the past week.

(Not that we didn't already know)

Platitudes. I don't see any accountability in that statement.

How do you as the CEO, knowing what great advertising campaigns you have had - frogs, real men of genius, Dilly Dilly - look at this one and go, yep this is a winner.

All management for that company should be looking for another job. Talk about not knowing your base.

Nothing about an apology or saying they will no longer divide this country by imposing their views on us. **** Anheuser-Busch.

The funniest part is their use of "heartland" and "freedom" and "hard work".

Some PR firm made millions off of that statement that says absolutely nothing but tries to say "we're sorry republicans" without actually saying it to stay woke.

That's a lot of words to say they have no ragrets other than losing money.

At least they reached less than 0.3% of the population... Most of them do not drink beer... At least not domestic beer.

Let me know when you fire the Marketing Director who came up with the Trans promotion.

This **** is why consumer businesses shouldn't get into politics. They can't apologize because that would piss off the rest of the country

They literally said nothing other than "We are Anheiser Busch."

Then they should say that. Be clear and up front.

I can easily forgive and support people who acknowledge they screwed up. I still do stupid stuff from time to time.

But stop hiding behind words.

There's not much remorse expressed in that statement. He certainly didn't walk anything back. More like can't we all just move on and be friends?

It's like he thinks everyone will just forget about it and move on from their repulsive ad.

That's exactly what that is. Eff em. They wanna wade into woke waters that's their new customer base. Not that I was buying that crap anyway so doesn't matter to me. But I sure don't mind these companies feeling the pain of these kinds of stupids moves.

I doubt the CEO signed off on anything more than "we are going to reach out to some social media influencers to generate some increased metrics on TikTok."

That's a lot of words to say nothing at all. He knows they screwed up but glosses right over it. No commitment to go back to what made them an iconic beer and pop culture staple.

Go back to the days of Spuds McKinzie, the what's up bros and frogs. That was their heyday and if they don't stop wading into politics and virtue signaling to the woke mob, I hope they end up on the trash heap of history.

He's correct if that's his assumption.

One of these companies needs to be made an example of. Bud light is an easy thing to drop for a local outfit.

It's legit one of the worst not knowing your customer moves I have ever seen. These people don't even associated with their customers at all anymore and judge them from ivory towers.

Now that they have made bud light the "tr*nny" beer, that's what their customers will call each other if they see friends drinking it. It's not the 1960s anymore where small ads can be ignored, they go national to everyone in rural areas.

"You must like d*cks if you're drinking bud light!"

Good luck idiots.

Didn't see anything implying an immediate cessation of this idiotic marketing campaign and firing of the stupid ***** who thought it would be a good idea.

When I drink beer, a very rare thing, I have not typically drank this swill. Will certainly pass on it now.

Sales on the week are meaningless.

Stock is what investors care about. They are even on the week.

Notice how the CEO didn't mention that they are reevaluating their partnerships or marketing strategies.

In the end it is incredibly ironic that the "anti-cancel culture" conservative couldn't help themselves but beg for attention on tik-toc (something themselves want to ban right now) as they pour out bud light that they had bought themselves or run it over with a truck (Ford & Chevy both support lgbt+ policies) an replace it with Miller, who if anything has been pro-lgbt longer than any other brewery.

Get a grip. We are not going back to the 50's.
