NEW YORK (AdAge.com) — The Ochs-Sulzberger family's dilemma over The New York Times Co. grew starker this week, as the company finally cut the dividend that provides big chunks of their income and the stock price plummeted further. Shares in the Times Co. fell 6.64% on Friday to close at $5.34. That's a 66.8% decline in one year.

We were excited to work on the logo and energized by the prospect of Mr. Obama’s campaign. However, we didn’t pursue or develop the work because we were motivated exclusively by ideology. It was an opportunity to do breakthrough work at the right time in what’s become a predictable graphic landscape.
This was Sender’s first political logo.

Posted in: UncategorizedThis ad by Ignited for LA Weekly puts blue space to good use. It also reminds us of a fundamental truth. Be that as it may, I asked Sarah Hughes, the copywriter on the campaign, if it wasn’t a bit odd to use a “computer speak” to relay the brand’s pro-print message.
“One of the main arguments that print is dying is that it’s being replaced by the internet and other digital technologies,” she said. “By using ‘command P’ as one of our executions, we were trying to communicate that print and technology can coexist. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. The simple fact that we still have the need to print out what we see on our computers, be it an email, a web article, etc. illustrates that.”
