Anheuser-Busch has placed two executives on leave after a Bud Light sponsorship with a transgender woman sparked backlash from conservative media, according to the Wall Street Journal and other media reports. The beer maker sponsored two Instagram posts by transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney and sent her a can of beer with her face on it. A few days after the post was published, musician Kid Rock posted an Instagram video of himself shooting cases of Bud Light, and conservatives called for a boycott of the company. Although the campaign received support from trans activists, some of the online backlash recently turned into physical danger when one of Anheuser-Busch's facilities received a bomb threat. According to reports, the executives placed on leave are Alissa Heinerscheid, Bud Light's vice president of marketing, and Daniel Blake, Anheuser-Busch's vice president who oversees marketing for mainstream brands
