Radar Online and Gawker are reporting that Conde Nast has shuttered Jane magazine, the young women's title that tried to walk in the same kitten heels as the legendary Sassy.

"Jane spent 2006 essentially on death watch, as ad pages cratered by 20.9%, according to the Publishers Information Bureau," reports Crain's.

And: "In a departure from the style of other recent magazine shut downs, such as Time Inc.'s Teen People and Hachette Filipacchi's Elle Girl, Conde is making no plans for the brand to 'live on online.'"
