On the editorial side, different editors handle different parts of the paper. For example a news editor, a city editor, a sports editor, a features editor, and a business editor. The managing editor oversees these news departments. A copy editor checks the reporter's stories before they are set in type, and a layout editor positions these stories. All of these people report to the publisher.
