Bud Lite & Fox News

[Ponca Dan]

Surely those two corporate behemoths know that the brouhaha will fade away and they will once again capture the market share they’ve always enjoyed. In the case of Bud Lite they must know that people have very short memories and won’t hold a grudge against one of their favorite beverages forever. Why punish themselves? They’ve made their opinion known and now it’s time to let bygones be bygones. In the case of Fox News the corporate exes know full well their traditional audience has nowhere else to go, and will eventually shuffle back.

And that’s where Fox may make a mistake. People do have somewhere else to go and it’s where they should have been anyway, and that’s independent media where voices are uncensored by corporations beholden to their advertisers, where news readers read the news they are told to read. Substack and Rumble are excellent sources to find the news unfiltered, where no matter what your political point of view you are free to express it in your own words.

If you haven’t yet discovered Rumble or Substack I encourage you to check them out. Explore voices from all angles, voices that are independent of the group-think spoon fed by corporate media.

Bud Lite had been taking a hit in sales before they got tarded. The whole tranny kiss up was to entice the 10 million followers the tranny has in hopes of saving the bud lite brand, it backfired and they actually lost customers instead of gaining any. People are gonna drink, people that watch MSPM will too because it depresses you but how many still watch MSPM? A lot of people stopped tuning in a long time ago. I haven't watched fox news in 3 yrs, I drink daily but not that horse piss.

I was at On the Border Wednesday grabbing a quick beverage with an Indian friend of mine. You look up and see what is on tap and it’s almost entirely AB products. Even if people want to boycott something, it’s not easy. And people today have no convictions so, yes, all this is temporary. I mean, what are my parents going to watch, MSNBC? LOL! They’re old not mentally I’ll!

Nasty beer, but back when men were men and smelled like horses.

I have not bought an AB product in some time. It's just horrible beer, and if I'm going to drink, I'm going to drink good beer. That being said just like Fox today there are so many other options to buy beer. I've been to places that don't even sell AB products. I had hoped that when Heineken bought out AB that the quality would improve, but alas, it's still piss water, like much of the US's big corporate been companies. The fact that they have lost almost 20% of their sales due to this is significant and you will never be able to put them at zero. They know they f'd up, and they will have a huge hill to climb if they don't apologize, but they need to apologize. If not, there are much better options that taste better and are widely available. Not a good combination for them. I would be less worried about Fox news as the other options are limited.

Clip of model recreating Kid Rock's violent Bud Light video goes viral

"Go woke, go broke!" Bri Teresi said in her video, before opening fire on a range of products that included the beleaguered beer brand.

There are so many local craft beers that's available. I didn't know the ab bought Breckenridge brewery until I was looking at inab bevs holdings

I've been a Coors guy since gawd was a corporal. One big exception: The Fox, which did not serve it.

I brew a little moonshine ever now and then. You'd puke after lights out. 😁

I do my best not to over drink anything anymore; as of 6/06/22 only one kidney on board.

I hope to learn my lesson sometime soon. I'm as hardheaded as they come though. 😁

I'd call that fear and common sense.

When I was little, my mother made my father a quart Mason jar of ice water he carried under the car seat so he wouldn't have to deal with the WHITE ONLY and COLORED ONLY drinking fountains at Montgomery Ward and Sears Roebuck.

Wife and I played gold Sunday. I made it a point to look in the trash can where the kid cleans out the gold carts, not a single Budlight but plenty of Coors and Miller lite.

Inbev certainly miscalculated. Miscalculated Americans. Probably got a bailout from loose britches. Or it's in the works.
