Brendan Whitworth, CEO of Bud Light parent company Anheuser-Busch, issued a statement Friday addressing a recent transphobic boycott of Bud Light following an April brand partnership. The brand came under fire from conservatives last week after a social media partnership with trans activist and TikTok creator Dylan Mulvaney.
Conservative celebrities, including Kid Rock and Travis Tritt, fueled the boycott via posts on their social media platforms.
