Cosmogirl magazine is closing, being folded into big sister title Seventeen. Hearst Magazines CEO Cathie Black made the announcement of the "strategic decision" today and we saw it reported in several places, including Jeff Bercovici's column in Portfolio magazine.

Effective with the December issue, CosmoGirl will continue to exist online cosmogirl.com. Cosmogirl subscribers will be offered Seventeen instead. Hearst said editor in chief Susan Schulz will remain with the company in some capacity.
