Doritos radio silence so far is interesting.

In response to a request for comment from Rolling Stone, a Doritos spokesperson said that Doritos Spain had published an Instagram video featuring Hudson (not, as some outlets erroneously reported, a larger brand ambassadorship campaign) on Sunday, prior to discovering the existence of her previous comments on social media; on Monday morning, after the team became aware of her comments, the post was removed and Hudson terminated. The spokesperson said that Hudson’s termination had nothing to do with her gender identity, and everything to do with her history of inflammatory comments.

A spokesperson for Doritos Spain also provided a statement saying the brand was “made aware of Samantha’s deleted Tweets from around 2015” after the campaign had started. “We have ended the relationship and stopped all related campaign activity due to the comments,” the spokesperson said. “We strongly condemn words or actions that promote violence or sexism of any kind.”

Im guessing someone in Doritos Spain's marketing team is shitting their pants right now
