Consumers Are Less Interested in Brands Taking Stances on Sociopolitical Issues, Survey Finds

Consumers’ desire for companies to weigh in on current events and sociopolitical topics has fallen as brands such as Bud Light increasingly find themselves caught in the culture war crossfire, according to new research conducted by Gallup and Bentley University.

I added that to my reading list.
