   > Ha ha!  Stupid ugly woke cunt.   
      
   When will these companies learn?   
      
   Victoria’s Secret brand CEO Amy Hauk resigned after less than a year on   
   the job – their stock dropped 8% after the news.   
      
   CNN reported:   
      
   Victoria’s Secret brand CEO Amy Hauk has resigned less than a year into   
   the job, the company said Tuesday.   
      
   Hauk, who was also CEO of the company’s Pink apparel brand geared to   
   teens, notified the company of her resignation last week, the company   
   said. She will leave Victoria’s Secret in March.   
      
   Martin Waters, the CEO of the brand’s parent company, Victoria’s Secret &   
   Co., will take over as CEO of the brand.   
      
   Shares of Victoria’s Secret dropped 8% on the news during after-hours   
   trading Tuesday.   
      
   The company came under fire after it was exposed its founder had ties to   
   Jeffrey Epstein.   
      
   The company also went woke hiring a plus-size model and its first male   
   model earlier in 2022.   
      
   The Blaze reported:   
      
   The company has suffered a public relations black eye since its founder,   
   Leslie Wexner, was found to have ties to Jeffrey Epstein.   
      
   Many of the company’s recent brand decisions were far cries from the   
   traditional image Victoria’s Secret previously held with consumers,   
   perhaps most notably ending its Victoria’s Secret “Angels” brand, opting   
   for a more inclusive advertising approach.   
      
   In February 2022, the company hired its first plus-size model, a TikTok   
   influencer, as it expanded the sizes of its garments. Hauk called the move   
   empowering and remarked that she thought the model pushed boundaries.   
      
   …   
      
   In April 2022, Hauk hired the first the male model in Victoria’s Secret   
   history, a move that was intended to promote mental health and empower   
   young adults.   
      
   Go woke, go broke!
