EXCLUSIVE: SOURCE: Top Anheuser-Busch Marketing Executives Responsible For Boycott Are No Longer Employed
Daily Caller ^ | 6/28/23 | Henry Rodgers

Posted on 06/28/2023 1:42:51 PM PDT by DeathBeforeDishonor1

The two top Anheuser-Busch marketing executives who were placed on leave amid the company shakeup no longer work for the brand, a source inside Anheuser-Busch confirmed in texts obtained by the Daily Caller on Tuesday.

Group Vice President for Marketing Daniel Blake and Bud Light Marketing Vice President Alissa Heinerscheid are “gone gone,” according to obtained text messages with a current regional head of marketing. The Caller is granting anonymity to the source to discuss legally fraught internal company policy.

“To my understanding if we publicly announced the word ‘fire’ it opens up the potential for them to sue us. Thats why we said leave of absence,” the source said in a text message obtained by the Caller.

“The wholesalers would have had an absolute HAY DAY with leadership if they didn’t remove her,” the source inside the company also said.

“To be fair- Daniel Blake was actually awesome. I think he was just caught in cross fire. But also he did hire her… so that’s a fault,” the source continued.

“Wholesalers were told they are both gone for good by leadership during in person conversations. They already shifted all their direct reports to new people and the head of marketing,” the source added in another text message obtained by the Caller.

There has to be a “woke” company policy that was the cause. Review the Human Resources folks responsible for the brand.

Accomplished $B’s in brand value up in smoke. How do you euphemize that in resume speak?

So, the buck stops at the bottom and/or middle? Top management and CEOs cannot be held responsible for what they, for sure, was going to happen in their marketing department with Bud Light?

In this highly-charged atmosphere, I have no doubt these fired managers were given very large severance packages, with very strict non-disclosure agreements in place also.

“FIRED” is legally justified in this case.
Next excuse.....

It is unclear if Heinerscheid, who was seen close to her $8 million apartment near Central Park, is on paid leave from the company, but she joined in 2022 and vowed to freshen up its image.

I've *been* a VP, and I drive a 25 year old Volvo and live in New Jersey. Clearly, I picked the wrong company to be a VP for. (Then again, I never convinced my boss to go along with driving the company off a cliff in an effort to capture a 0.02% market share, either.)

Well, that’s a surprise… maybe not. The CEO could have given them a raise.

“To my understanding if we publicly announced the word ‘fire’ it opens up the potential for them to sue us. Thats why we said leave of absence,”

In other words, they were never fired and they never resigned. So they are still, what's the word, "employees."
