Catholic Herald US to shut down offices

The Catholic Herald’s U.S. edition is shutting down its offices in Washington, D.C., after less than two years of publication, people familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner.

The magazine, which claims to be “America’s only national Catholic weekly magazine of current affairs and culture,” reached the decision after concluding that its operations had been mismanaged, a person familiar with the matter said. The magazine’s ownership “didn’t have realistic expectations” at any point in the publication’s effort to build a presence in the United States, he added.
