    KANSAS CITY, Mo. --

    Five-year veteran creative director Katy Hornaday has been promoted to executive creative director at Kansas City-based agency Barkley. Additionally, Paul Corrigan has been tapped to lead Barkley’s Blacktop design unit. 

    In her prior role as creative director, Hornaday led creative work for Hershey, Anheuser-Busch, Cargill, Noodles & Company and Vanity Fair, as well as a number of other brands since joining Barkley in 2012. Her work for Hershey TAKE5 was Barkley’s most-awarded work ever at this year’s Kansas City Addys, including the award of Overall Best In Show. 

    Previously Hornaday was a sr. copywriter at Crispin, Porter + Bogusky, working on brands such as Old Navy and Baby Carrots, before moving to Mullen in Boston where she held the title of associate creative director for brands like Zappos and JetBlue. 

    Hornaday replaces Jason Elm, who is departing Barkley. 

    Meanwhile in an effort to build up its portfolio in brand experience and design, long-time Barkley veteran Corrigan has been named executive design director. He will head the Blacktop design unit. As part of the change, Barkley’s experience design team will now report to Corrigan within Blacktop.

    Corrigan has been with Barkley since 2004 and prior to this promotion has held the titles of VP/interactive creative director, executive creative director, and design director. He replaces Blacktop founder Shawn Polowniak, who is leaving Barkley.

    A Closer Look At Proposed Measures Designed To Curb Google’s Search Monopoly

    Thursday, November 21, 2024

    U.S. regulators are proposing aggressive measures to restore competition to the online search market after a federal judge ruled Google maintained an illegal monopoly for the last decade.

    The sweeping set of recommendations filed late Wednesday by the U.S. Department of Justice could radically alter Google's business, including possibly spinning off the Chrome web browser and syndicating its search data to competitors. Even if the courts adopt the blueprint, Google isn't likely to make any significant changes until 2026 at the earliest, because of the legal system's slow-moving wheels.

    Here's what it all means:

    What is the Justice Department's goal?
    Federal prosecutors are cracking down on Google in a case originally filed during near the end of then-President Donald Trump's first term. Officials say the main goal of these proposals is to get Google to stop leveraging its dominant search engine to illegally squelch competition and stifle innovation.

    "The playing field is not level because of Google's conduct, and Google's quality reflects the ill-gotten gains of an advantage illegally acquired," the Justice Department asserted in its recommendations. "The remedy must close this gap and deprive Google of these advantages."

    Not surprisingly, Google sees things much differently. The Justice Department's "wildly overbroad proposal goes miles beyond the Court's decision," Kent Walker, Google's chief legal officer, asserted in a blog post. "It would break a range of Google products — even beyond search — that people love and find helpful in their everyday lives."

    It's still possible that the Justice Department could ease off on its attempts to break up Google, especially if President-elect Donald Trump... Read More
