Bud Light on Thursday dropped a new summer-themed ad online that was met with scorn and negative reception from a multitude of social media users.
Bud Light appeared to try to avoid controversy with its latest ad. The commercial shows Americans looking to quench their thirst during the summer heat.
The smiling faces of the Bud Light drinkers in the ad were set to the tune of Chic’s 1979 disco hit,"Good Times," though the feel-good nature of the commercial was not enough to placate conservative beer drinkers who slammed the ad immediately.Daily Caller Editor-in-Chief Geoffrey Ingersoll offered some serious advice to the beer brand, tweeting,"You’re getting brigaded for this and for good reasons, guys, but also, on its merits, the commercial is dumb.
