The reputation of the organization was stained when former Papa John’s CEO John Schnatter blamed weak third quarter sales on NFL players protesting police brutality and racial inequality (McGrath, 2018).

Unwelcomed support of white supremacists neo Nazis have tarnished the organization’s reputation (Larkin, 2018). The company failed to recognize the power of social media and advertising. Pizza Hut has now become the official pizza sponsor of the NFL. The company has also experienced a high turnover of upper management employees.

Much of Plath’s poetry is confessional and divulges the most intimate parts of her psyche whether through metaphor or openly, without creating a persona through which to project her feelings, and through the use of intense imagery. Plath’s attempt to purge herself of the oppressive male figures in her life is one such deeply personal and fundamental theme in her poetry. In her poem, “Daddy”, which declares her hatred for her father and husband, this attempt is expressed through language, structure, and tone. (Perkins, 591)
