LOSING ITS VOICE: The venerable Village Voice is starting to look more and more like the alternative weekly version of the Titanic. Last week, legendary gossip columnist and gay activist Michael Musto exited along with food writer Robert Sietsema and award-winning drama critic Michael Feingold, pushed out the door by Voice Media Group Executive Editor Christine Brennan. That prompted the departures of Editor-in-Chief Will Bourne and deputy Jessica Lustig, who walked rather than fire the writers, replaced by interim editor Pete Kotz. Yesterday, two more walked the plank, including staff scribe Nick Pinto and food editor Tejal Rao. Sheez, we still haven’t gotten over Andrew Sarris and Robert Christgau leaving. (5/21p)
