Ladies' Home Journal to Cease Monthly Publication [Updated]

The 131-year-old magazine has been struggling in ad pages

 

UPDATE: A Meredith spokesperson has confirmed that while Ladies’ Home Journal will be ending its run as a monthly magazine, the brand will live on as a quarterly, newsstand-only publication with “a robust digital presence” this fall. (Meredith took a similar tactic with its Country Home magazine, which transitioned from a monthly to a special interest publication back in 2009, and is now, per the company, a profitable brand.)

The entire current Ladies’ Home Journal staff, including its editor, Sally Lee, has been laid off.
