No, but one of the main characters is a huckster and there is a scene where he is doting on two small dogs to pander to his public but is not being careful with them and one yelps in pain, though you do not see anything happen to the dog and the yelp appears to have been edited in to make the point that he's a callous jerk who doesn't really care about the dogs past the photo op.

Andy Griffith's character sexually lunges at and aggressively chases while trying to grope two separate women from a board room for male humor. He also leers at and marries a 17 year old with a huge crush on him and later callously dumps her.

Andy Griffith's character (who is depicted as being a terrible person) is hired as a tv coach for a presidential candidate. One of the things that he advises him to do is to stop pursing his lips because it "makes him look [effeminate]".

The N-word is not spoken and there is no explicitly racist language, but a white person does touch a Black person's hair when they tousle it after telling a joke, and Andy Griffith's character chastises and shoves three Black servants when he sees his empire crumbling at the end. The overall tone of the movie is pro-Black and pro-feminist and most of these depictions (as well as the depictions of misogyny) are in the context of showing a white person to be a bad person while also being tempered with depictions of women and minorities as fully realized people throughout the movie.

(VAGUE SPOILER) I'm surprised that people are saying yes to this. I would definitely say no. It's a dramatic ending, but the bad guy loses and the good guys win.
