...there hasn't been much pushback. Even anti-pornography activist Donna Rice Hughes was not shocked that Anheuser-Busch, which makes Bud Light, would go there. "The line has gotten really blurred," she says. "There's a whole generation that has been pornified. They don't think it's a big deal. Budweiser's tapping into that."
