Clay Travis BANNED from CNN for exercising his First Amendment rights?!



Founder of OutKick Clay Travis may never be allowed back on CNN.

As Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” says, it’s because he “said something true and it was very upsetting to the host.”

“I’m a First Amendment absolutist,” Travis had said, before following up with, “I believe in only two things completely: the First Amendment and boobs.”

“Hold on, hold on, I just want to make sure I heard you correctly as a woman anchoring the show — did you just say, what did you just say?” the host, Brooke Baldwin asked, wrinkling her face in disgust.

“Boobs,” Travis confirmed. “The two things that have never let me down in this entire country’s history. The First Amendment and boobs. So those are the only two things I believe in absolutely in the country.”

While Baldwin was not pleased with Travis, years later, the sports fanatic is still pleased with himself.

“It was emblematic of how you can never apologize to an inauthentic emotion. I’ve been married 20 years, trust me. I’ve apologized plenty,” Travis tells Rubin. “But not for something that is manufactured outrage.”

WATCH: Exclusive footage of the moment Diddy is arrested



If you haven’t heard, Sean “Diddy” Combs — and likely much of Hollywood — is in hot water after the U.S. Justice Department unsealed charges against the famous rapper.

The charges allege that he abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct.

Diddy reportedly accomplished this by relying on the employees and influence of the multifaceted business empire that he led and controlled. Under his leadership, this business empire became a “criminal enterprise” that allegedly included sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice.

Prosecutors have alleged that Diddy “engaged in persistent and pervasive patterns of abuse towards women and other individuals.”

Diddy also threw and engaged in “sex parties” that were referred to as “freak offs” — which apparently could last for days. At these parties, commercial sex workers allegedly were transported across state and international lines, women allegedly were forced to engage in extended sex acts with male commercial sex workers, and heavy drug use allegedly was involved.

Since these allegations came to light, many celebrities have begun deleting their social media feeds.

“Suddenly now, a bunch of big-time musicians have deleted their Twitter accounts. Usher’s Twitter account has disappeared,” Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” tells Clay Travis, noting that Pink’s account disappeared as well.

“The whole thing sounds like a honeypot,” he adds.

Travis believes it “feels Epstein-esque.”

“There was video being made of sex acts that may have been used for blackmail going forward, and the fact that he has not been able to get out on bail,” he continues, adding, “I think Diddy’s going to get killed.”

Social experiment PROVES Bud Light is SCREWED



If you needed more proof that Bud Light isn’t doing too hot amidst its recent devastating fall in sales, Chad Prather and Clay Travis have you covered.

Prather reports that Clay Travis uploaded clips of a social experiment to social media, and the results were exactly as you’d expect.

Travis filled a cooler with Bud Light and other assorted beers at the beginning of a party before leaving the cooler alone for the night.

At the end of the night, the only beers left in the cooler were — you guessed it — Bud Light.

“I’m not a marketing expert, but the only beer left,” Travis said as he recorded the cooler full of Bud Light.

Travis recorded this video after Anheuser-Busch came under fire for using transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney to market Bud Light, and it appears most beer drinkers are not happy about it.

Including Chad Prather.

Prather says, “This is about the exploitation of women. Ultimately it’s the exploitation of children. This is an influencer that you’re promoting and pushing up there who has a very dangerous message.”

Prather adds that his stance on this issue has received backlash, and he’s being told to just “leave people alone.”

“I would love to leave people alone,” he says, “but I’m not the one who’s pushed for the chemical castration of children. I’m not the one that’s forced biological males to go into women’s bathrooms. I’m not the one who wanted biological males to compete against women in sports or any other thing. I’m not giving 'Woman of the Year' to a biological male.”

“You didn’t leave it alone,” he continues, “so now I’m not going to leave it alone.”

Clay Travis conducted an experiment in which he gave out free beer at an event. He ended up with a cooler full of Bud Light: 'I'm not a marketing expert, but ...'



Good music outdoors on a hot night may go nicely with a cold beer, unless of course that beer is a Bud Light.

That's what OutKick founder Clay Travis discovered over the weekend when conducting an experiment on whether Nashville music fans would put the Anheuser-Busch controversy behind them and one of the company's signature drinks in hand.

Travis shared videos to Twitter Monday detailing his "weekend experiment," in which he offered passersby free beer at a concert in the Nashville area.

"Pick which beer you want," was the only prompt. Inside the cooler: a variety of beers including Bud Light.

According to Travis, "No one would take the Bud Light all night long. Big issue going forward for Bud Light is many don’t even want to be seen with product. They just pick another brand."

Rather than tacitly absolve Anheuser-Busch for having partnered with transvestic activist Dylan Mulvaney to celebrate his "365 Days of Girlhood," concert-goers reportedly opted for beers such as Yuengling.

TheBlaze previously reported that Yuengling struck a contrast with Bud Light's woke marketing in April with a straightforward ad that featured a picture of Yuengling beer and an American flag with the caption, "Yuengling, The Oldest Brewery In America. Independently Owned and Family Operated since 1829 because we make good beer."

Travis' first video, taken at 6:45 p.m., shows a cooler full of beer. His second video, reportedly taken at 10:15 p.m., shows a cooler emptied of all but Bud Light cans.

"I’m not a marketing expert, but the only beer left at the West Fest ... Bud Light," said Travis. "Not ideal. Not good."

\u201cWeekend experiment. Beers in cooler at Nashville area event. Pick which beer you want. No one would take the Bud Light all night long. Big issue going forward for Bud Light is many don\u2019t even want to be seen with product. They just pick another brand.\u201d

In a follow-up tweet, Travis noted, "Overall consumption of Bud Light is now down 26%. That’s an unmitigated disaster for the brand. And many are now avoiding the beer to avoid being mocked for drinking the beer. There’s no quick fix here, brand is slaughtered in red state beer drinking communities. Bet there is hardly any at SEC tailgates this fall."

The results of Travis' experiment appear to replicate that seen in the wild.

Last week, viral footage taken at Boston's Fenway Park showed that sports fans did their best to avoid at least one Bud Light concession stand.

In the video, a bystander can be heard remarking, "Guys, this is so funny and bizarre." As he pans to the customer-less Bud Light stand, he adds, "That is every single Bud Light stand here at Fenway Park in Boston ... holy crap, they're in trouble."

While Bud Light was left in Travis' cooler, Michelob Ultra, another Anheuser-Busch beer, was snatched up. This trend may similarly change, beer industry expert Bump Williams told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

"What’s happening now is that anybody that is a Bud Light drinker and switches to Michelob Ultra because they don’t want to be seen holding a Bud Light, someone down the bar is going to say, 'Hey, buddy, that’s an Anheuser-Busch product you’re holding.'"

TheBlaze indicated earlier this month that Bud Light has seen sales plunge 21% compared to the same week in 2022.

Beer Business Daily described the drop as a "shocking deterioration" of Bud Light's market share. "We've never seen such a dramatic shift in national share in such a short period of time," the newsletter said.

The number of beer cases sold has plummeted 26%.

Boycotts appear to have cost the beer's parent company, Anheuser-Busch, roughly $5 billion in losses.

Anhuser-Busch has since blamed a "third party ad agency" for its partnership with Mulaney, telling distributors that it has fired the marketing firm responsible, reported Fox News Digital.

Last week, Anheuser-Busch CEO Michel Doukeris tried to downplay the company's foray into transgender propaganda as constituting "one can, one influencer, one post and not a campaign."
