This paper investigates continuity of the solution to the even logarithmic Minkowski problem in the plane. It is shown that the weak convergence of a sequence of cone-volume measures in ℝ2 implies the convergence of the sequence of the corresponding origin-symmetric convex bodies in the Hausdorff metric.
