Try censoring this anti-woke anthem in a small town | The Hill

CMT is unlikely to be as defiant as Disney. While many families objected to Disney s social agenda, the size of the corporation is so large and it is sufficiently diversified that it can take a market hit that would crush most other companies. CMT is neither diversified nor insulated to the same extent. It is closer to Bud Light. It sells country music, and consumers can find other outlets for their tastes.

By pulling the song, CMT tied its brand to censorship, even if only temporarily. What Bud Light showed is that companies cannot attempt nuanced half-measures. If it is going to avoid a Bud Light moment, it has to offer more than a my bad.
