The Anheuser-Busch recent marketing campaign stirred up a lot of conversation and action from consumers -- on both sides of the issue. Now company marketing executives are on "leave," consumers across the board are angry, a boycott is in progress, sales and stocks are down, and other Anheuser brands are feeling the impact as well.

Every PR pro should be in tune with this data.
Grab a pen and paper, and take some notes today as we dig in to some more PR learning love.
