I think that companies will have to be a lot more mindful of what they're putting out.

Like, actually forming some sort of Sensitivity Team to screen mess before it hits the TV. This company just wasted a bunch of money on an ad that no one wants to see.

Even a Black owned company like Shea Moisture came under fire really hard - it was another instance where I felt it wasn't intentional but they definitely earned a lashing. I'm sure they learned from it.

It's just not the time in America's history to just be releasing anything you'd like without really having someone to look at it from every possible angle. Because someone easily could wrap a "this is racist" mess around the commercial and it'd make perfect sense.

White people are freakin' oblivious to a lot of things because they've never had to deal with it. I guarantee you that if a Black person was in charge of approving that ad we never would have seen it.

Not a sensitivity team ... I just feel like everyone is a little too sensitive.  It's beer.  Most of us don't drink that brand anyway but "I'm offended" gorl
ugh nick, that?s not the point. The bigger picture is what u gotta see

They shouldn?t be doing it just because they think they CAN. It doesn?t matter what the brand is and what the commercial is for

Overall Black people don't drink beer like that. What is the debate about :uhh: ?
waiting for some type of accurate proof to that claim

QuoteThis statistic depicts the share of weekly craft beer drinkers in the United States in 2015, by ethnicity. In that year, 60 percent of craft beer drinkers in the United States were Caucasians.

This is just the U.S but im sure these numbers are similar across the pond.

Look at all the other big European & American brands recently
Pepsi, Nivea, H&M, Dove...they had backlash for 2 weeks but they're still trading  :dead:
It's all promo

QuotePaul MacKenzie-Cummins, managing director of Clearly PR Marketing and Communications, thinks some brands are using race to grab people's attention.

"They're clever people, those who work in ad agencies. They're very skilled and have huge budgets and are under increasing pressure to raise the profile of their client's brand.

"It's an ultra-competitive market and the retail space has never been as competitive as what it is now. They need to do something to get their voices seen and heard."

mess. They?re all tryna outdo each other and go viral

It?s the new strategy and it?s a cackle a minute

no there?s a clear difference
Budweiser, Miller, Heineken, Michelob etc are not craft beer
none of the big brands that most ppl drink are craft
therefore that article isn?t saying anything
