Reader's
Digest Association is shutting down the bimonthly Healthy Cooking as a
standalone magazine and transferring its 516,000 subscribers to the larger
Taste of Home, continuing its effort to focus on its big core brands.
Reader's Digest Association doesn't plan any
layoffs associated with the move and will begin running expanded healthy
content in Taste of Home as part of the change, according to Frank Quigley,
general manager of Reader's Digest Milwaukee, the unit that handles both
brands. Taste of Home's section on healthy choices, for example, will double to
eight pages.
