As Twitchy readers know, Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth tried to do some damage control around the Dylan Mulvaney EFF-UP with Bud Light and it did not go over so hot. We’re not entirely sure why he though mentioning MERICA and his service would fix what his VP of Marketing broke but here we are.
In case you missed his statement:
Anheuser-Busch (@AnheuserBusch) ~
He cares deeply about this country … alrighty.
Maybe pay more attention to what your marketing peeps are doing.
Just sayin’.
Brit Hume had just one word for the statement and yeah, as usual, it’s perfect.
Brit Hume (@brithume) ~ {Replying to @AnheuserBusch} Milquetoast.
*yawn*
Doesn’t really fix anything, right?
Fast forward to the A-B CEO's next meeting with the Board of Directors ...
Ron Mann (@RonMann19) ~ Anheuser-Busch will become a grad school case study in how to ineffectively deal with a self-imposed communications snafu.
"Communications SNAFU"? Nah, more like ...
Benedick is picking out a thermos for you (@BenedickUSA) ~ It's the Bud Light of CEO press releases.
William Wood (@WilliamWood10) ~ Hasn't been an American company in years.
Republican Party of Rockingham County (NH) (@RockinghamCoGOP) ~ Words put to paper without saying anything.
As so many statements from companies going woke often are.
