Every week since April 1 and Bud Light's marketing decision fiasco, the company has trotted out another trial balloon suggesting that someone or some-group is to blame for their troubles.

They refuse to simply admit they made a serious mistake by not recognizing their consumer base. I don't think the latest is going to go over any better than the previous excuses.

This article is worthless with the paywall. There is no new news except for headline but the article doesn’t allow you to see what this social media misinformation is. What are they claiming is the misinformation???

There’s nothing that “misinformation” can’t do apparently

“The rightwing boycott”

One of the few times I’m glad a story is behind a pay wall.

Hey Boss:

Do you think Bruce Jenner should be able to walk about in our daughters’ locker rooms?

Exactly. They are simple-minded and have no concept of how offensive the transgender system of non-conformity to common sense is hurting others. These people purposely deny and defy who and what women and men are. All of it is narcissism from the sickest mental disorder. God makes NO mistakes. These are fools who choose to do battle with the Creator of the Universe. I don’t want to even witness what their judgement will be.

Blaming someone or something for the problem you created just further alienates people from their brand and the others they sell.

There is no “misinformation”

Your company got in bed with a sicko…

A man who pantomimes being a woman on social media, largely to an audience of children and teens.. it’s despicable, and has yet to in any way actually take ownership of your actions.

When you say, you had no idea this happened, I do believe you.

When you say some low level person on contractor was responsible for having this can made, I believe you.

However you hired the nitwits who pushed this DEI insanity. You set up systems that let some low level person make such a stupid decision and execute on it without oversight and you continue to refuse to simply own it.

Someone signed off on making that can, I highly doubt it was the CEO.. but if it wasn’t someone high up in the marketing department… it should have been.

I guarantee if I was running a department and my department cost my company 25% of its sales due to any reason I wouldn’t be given a leave of absence I’d be flat out fired. As would 99.9999999% of the rest of the world.

Until you admit that while this man is free to live his life however he wants, that getting involved in any way with a man pantomiming being a woman mostly to an audience of teenagers and children was a horrible and wrong.. no matter how low the employee was who did it… until AB does that, they will continue to tank.

You can have a loud minority who doesn’t drink much of your product anyway as your enemy. Or you can have the vast majority of your consumer base write you off.

Simple decision, in a sane world, but we left the same world
long ago.

Misinformation?

Based on what? Conservatives don’t want to drink or in any way be associated with tranny fluid.

Lucky for Bud there are millions and millions of the Enlightened who will rush in to replace the lost troglodyte consumers.

A man who thinks he is a woman is not right in the head.

A woman who thinks she is a man is not right in the head.

People who think demented young teenagers are competent to consent to have their boobs cut off are not right in the head.

Bud Lite exists as a creature of advertising. Bud Lite is really the Emperor’s new clothes.

Bud Lite is diluted beer.

The time has come when the markets wants beer.

Miss Information. The next mascot. The next excuse. The next complaint. The next marketing strategy. What you see is not what's there, because "whatever...."

Progressive politics and cultural warfare in business are a very poor mix. Who would've thought?

“transgender” - simply not possible - fraud

“gender-affirming” when not chromosome consistent - fraud

AB InBev should not spread misinformation.

“The rightwing boycott”

Miss Sugiura needs to stay up with the news a bit better. The queers are now boycotting Pissweiser as well. At least Chicago gay bars are and I’m sure it will spread.

A business owned by a company in Belgium passing itself off as solidly American is misinforming Americans.

A foreign car dealership flying big American flags is misinforming its customers.

Perhaps you could write off as “misinformation” originally. Then the idiot, woke marketing gal doubled down on it.

No, bud just crapped the bed and now they are trying to talk their way out of it.
