Divine Mercy and Public Relations
We're going to take a look at the Feast of Divine Mercy, coming up this Sunday. We'll discuss the connection between mercy and reparations. Then we will discuss the Bud Lite controversy, examining why some people are pushing back against the brand's latest marketing strategy. We'll take a brief look at the history of marketing and public relations and how it is used to sell everything from beer to social change. And finish examining why this controversy is different from others that have come before it.
