Can this magazine be saved? Unfortunately, no. Ladies’ Home Journal, America’s oldest women’s magazine, will cease monthly publishing with its July issue. A spokesman for its owner, Meredith Corporation, said the 131-year-old title will totter on as a newsstand-only quarterly.
What a sad ending for the publication that was once considered America’s premier women’s magazine. Launched in 1883 by Cyrus Curtis, who also started The Saturday Evening Post, LHJ developed out of the popular women’s page in Curtis’s first publication, a periodical for farmers. His wife was the first editor, and the second, a Dutch immigrant named Edward Bok, was the editorial genius who transformed the Journal into a mass magazine for millions.
Early in the 20th century Bok had great insight about what would interest “modern” readers. In every issue he featured the celebrities of the day, including Civil War generals, actresses, presidents and members of the British royal family. He also crusaded against popular patent medicines, distillations of alcohol and opium, which addicted many middle-class women at the time. And he wrote shockingly straightforward editorials warning women about sexual diseases such as syphilis.

Conde Nast distanced itself from ad tech company RadiumOne on Friday, after some people criticized the companies’ relationship because of domestic abuse allegations against RadiumOne CEO Gurbaksh Chahal.
Mr. Chahal pleaded guilty last week to one count of domestic violence battery and one count of battery, according to a report in the San Francisco Business Times. Prosecutors had sought more than 40 felony charges but relented after the accuser, Mr. Chahal’s girlfriend, stopped cooperating and a judge barred security footage that they said supported their case. Mr. Chahal received three years probation and must attend a violence training program and do community service, the report said.
The sentence set off a firestorm of criticism in blogs and on social media among those who felt it did not fit the alleged brutality of his actions. Several reports this week pointed out a partnership Conde Nast, publisher of Vogue, Glamour and GQ magazine, had struck recently with RadiumOne. “In the meantime, Chahal’s company appears to be doing splendidly,” Slate’s Jordan Weissmann wrote Thursday. “RadiumOne is planning a $100 million IPO. It signed a partnership with Conde Nast.”
