Now, in part because of YOUR actions, Anheuser-Busch has decided to not to renew its endorsement deal with Ludacris -- it's terminating the rapper's endorsement deal with the company. Congratulations -- it's another huge win for the folks.
Here's the petition so many of you sent:
We, the undersigned, are writing to express our disappointment with your company's decision to hire "gangsta" rapper Ludacris as a pitchman.
In his rap music, Ludacris celebrates criminal activity, general debauchery, and violence against women.
For example, Ludacris has written and recorded song lyrics like these:
"I got my twin glock .40's, cocked back
Me and my homies, so drop that."
"My shotguns are cold and hard ... my triggers are always talking about some squeeze me, squeeze me."
"I smack b***** with no (breasts)."
Does Anheuser-Busch believe that kind exposition is good for the USA?
Does the company realize that millions of children, many of them unsupervised, digest the garbage Ludacris puts out?
Does the company care?
Until your company terminates its relationship with Ludacris, I will refrain from purchasing Anheuser-Busch products.
Sincerely,
(NAME HERE)
