After Bud Light dropped from being the No. 1 beer in America earlier this month, Anheuser-Busch CEO Brendan Whitworth responded to falling sales. In a statement, Whitworth said Anheuser-Busch is "investing to protect the jobs" of its front-line employees impacted by the falling sales. The company also said it would provide financial assistance to its independent wholesalers to help them support their employees.
