Omnimedia Closes Everday Food

In the same announcement in which it announced the closing of Whole Living, MSLO revealed that it would also cease publication of Everyday Food, laying off around 12% of its workforce of 600.
Like many peers in the consumer magazine business, Everyday Food and Whole Living have suffered from declining print ad pages. In the first nine months of 2012, Everyday Food saw ad pages slump 8.7% from 232 to 212, while Whole Living fell 11.1% from 394 to 350, according to the Publishers Information Bureau. In the same period ad pages at Martha Stewart Living tumbled 32% to 498.
