Google has dropped its sponsorship of a San Francisco Pride event after hundreds of employees signed a fiery petition lashing out against it.
The tech giant sponsors a series of LGBT events across the US annually, and this year the headline event was due to be a ‘Pride and Drag Show’ at Beaux gay bar featuring popular performer Peaches Christ.
But employees noticed Google removed the San Francisco show from its internal events page after a petition was launched opposing the event on religious grounds, according to memos seen by CNBC.
