We are almost purely paginators, with individual desk editors editing their own copy. Then they leave. Editors and reporters are open to our questions about their copy. Then they complain that we are being picky. Other papers or out of the business entirely.
Greatest weakness is lack of strict leadership.
No one else has any. Less than two years. Only on their own initiative. Generally 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Extra pages are okay.
