This just came through the Twitter wire:
You might remember a few weeks ago when Papa John CEO John Schnatter attacked the NFL’s handling of the peaceful protests against racial injustice for flagging pizza sales. It was a silly, racist thing to say and it proceeded to have a deleterious affect on Papa John’s stock prices. Deleterious and stock prices are words that make big companies feel bad in their tummies, so getting rid of the face that forced Papa John to have to publicly disassociate itself from white supremacists isn’t a surprising move. In the end, the best part of this story is that John Schnatter’s commercial career may be over.
