Readers Digest shuts Spanish language edition

Readers Digest shuts Spanish language edition

RD Selecciones, the Spanish language edition of Readers Digest, will end its 37-year run in the United States when the Readers Digest Association shuts it down this June, Media Week reported. RD Selecciones U.S. will be survived by the 17 other editions still being published around the world.

A spokesman for Readers Digest said the U.S. edition "was not showing signs of having potential for continued viability financially." The magazine suffered from declining ad revenue and frequent changes in management. All four staff members who worked on the U.S. edition will lose their jobs.
