The Village Voice veteran publisher Judy Mizner has been axed by the new owners, who brought in Michael Cohen, publisher of the Miami New Times, the New York Post reports. Jim Larkin, CEO of Village Voice Media, which merged with New Times in the fall, said of Cohen, “He really understands free circulation. He’s a total newspaperman.”

The Voice has undergone a transformation in top posts, with editor Don Forst resigning last month and the post remaining unfilled. In the meantime, managing editor Doug Simmons has been taking on editorial duties.
