Anheuser-Busch faces backlash over Bud Light ad and alleged racist hiring practices.

Whoopi Goldberg criticized Bud Light's patriotic-themed commercial featuring Clydesdale horses, saying that the company needed to "get the horses out" following backlash over its decision to partner with transgender social media influencer Dylan Mulvaney. Goldberg took umbrage over the ad because it suggested that "horses are so much more American than trans people." The ad was released amid the backlash over Bud Light's marketing partnership with Mulvaney. Anheuser-Busch's top executive offered an apology that critics said was flat as the beer giant reels from the backlash over its sponsorship deal with Mulvaney.
