This hierarchy diagram is based on my understanding of a
newspaper company therefore all of the positions would be relative to that
certain a structure.
The first position I have included in my diagram would be
the chief executive of the company. This is the highest position in the company
and are therefore responsible for overseeing all of the major decisions that
the shareholders decide are worthy of discussion however unlike any other
shareholder the chief executive has the power to veto any decision as that they
are the owner of the largest part of the company.
After this I have put the managing director as well as city,
sports, front page and special sections editors. The managing director is in
charge of making sure that any story that will be featured in the newspaper is
suitable for publication as that this is an imposable task to do alone they
choose to delegate their role to other editors only handling cases that they
are unsure of and overseeing all
editorial boards.
Due to the fact that there is no way to be a journalist and
not a reporter in a newspaper i have chosen to include them together however in
another journalistic platform the difference in job role would be that the
journalist is responsible for compiling information and writing a story based
on it and the reporter presents that story. The information for this story may
be found by either a researcher or a journalist depending on the size of the
organisation.
