Behind the Label: The Robert Garza & Campbell Soup Scandal

Price

$9.99

ABOUT DOCUMENTARY:
When cybersecurity analyst Robert Garza exposed a profanity-filled, racist rant by a high-ranking executive — claiming that the company’s soups were “for poor people” and disparaging Indian coworkers — he thought the company would act responsibly. Instead, days later, he was abruptly fired. This documentary unmasks corporate hypocrisy, systemic racism, and retaliation behind the scenes of a storied American brand.

 

📰 Real-World Basis

  • In November 2024, Martin Bally — Vice President & Chief Information Security Officer at Campbell Soup Company — allegedly unleashed a tirade during a meeting with Robert Garza. The rant disparaged Campbell’s products and customers, labeled them “s--- for f------ poor people,” criticized the use of “bio-engineered meat,” made racist remarks about Indian employees, and allegedly admitted to using marijuana edibles before work. 

 

  • Garza recorded the conversation legally (in Michigan, one-party consent is allowed). After reporting the executive’s comments to his supervisor and complaining internally in January 2025, Garza was terminated on January 30, 2025 — despite a clean work record.

 

  • He is now pursuing legal action, claiming wrongful termination, racial hostility, and retaliation.

 

  • The scandal has drawn public attention and corporate scrutiny. The company has placed Bally on leave and launched an internal investigation pending the lawsuit outcomes.

 

📽 Documentary Description

“Behind the Label” is a 30-minute interactive exposé that dives deep into one of the most shocking corporate scandals of 2025 — a story about power, prejudice, and the cost of speaking truth to authority.

 

You’ll see:

  • Original recordings and dramatized reenactments of the November 2024 meeting — bringing to life the moment an executive publicly trashed the company’s own products and insulted coworkers and customers.

 

  • Interviews with Robert Garza, legal experts, workplace-rights advocates, and (anonymous) former employees to paint a full picture of the toxic culture.

 

  • Internal documents and timeline graphics showing how Garza’s complaint was handled — and how swiftly it turned into his termination.

 

  • Public reaction coverage, showing media fallout, community backlash, and corporate statements.

 

At the end, viewers are invited to reflect: What does this say about corporate accountability, racism in big business, and the cost of speaking up?
