John
Shattner the founder of Papa John has committed a mortal sin
He used the
N word to describe blacks, a faux pas from which you cannot recover, cannot win
In a Stalin
like déjà vu the face of Papa John will from all marketing material be erased
New
materials without his likeness to be quickly put in place
He resigned from
the University of Louisville Board of Trustees
His name on
a historic gym in Jeffersonville is no longer there to see
Still on the
board and still owns 30 percent of the stock
Investors wonder
when customers will get over the N word shock
Hitch your
company star to an individual and a company runs the risk of peril
Humans make
mistakes some of which put a company over a barrel
Like Subway’s
Jared Fogle who was discovered to child pornography possess
Prompting a
severance of ties immediately to prevent sales from being suppressed
Moral might
be if you are going to use a human as an image use one not alive
Vet the
biography extensively to prevent an embarrassment that would be hard to survive
