The CEO of Bud Light’s parent company Anheuser-Busch released a statement that said a whole lot of nothing Friday, presumably in response to the conservative, anti-trans boycotts of the beer following the company’s sponsorship deal with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney. “We never intended to be a part of a discussion that divides people,” Brendan Whitworth wrote Friday. “We are in the business of bringing people together over a beer.” The statement does not mention Mulvaney or those leading the boycotts, such as country music singers John Rich and Travis Tritt.
