Turnover can be good if it improves the paper. But at the News it hasn't done any good. The paper is boring and lifeless and gets beat left and right by the Post. They were beat on the Alex Rodriguez girlfriend story and every day you see other bone-headed judgements, even on the fluffiest of news. A few weeks ago Brad Pitt and his family were in NYC shopping and seen buying hot dogs and pretzels from a street vendor. The Post got some really fun shots of them and slapped them on the front page. It was the right call for a fun item. What did the News do? They ran one measely photo way in the back of the paper. Really dumb and a classic example of how they can't even figure out how to entertain their readers. And here is the reason: The masthead is filled with all the people who basically held B-level jobs at the paper five years ago. B people can't provide an A paper.
