What does a newspaper publisher do?

Answer 1

A magazine publisher is the "general manager" for a magazine, responsible for ensuring the financial health of the magazine. This includes managing circulation, sales, production and editorial. Some publishers also serve as editors, but it's also common for a publisher to keep a "hands off" policy regarding editorial to prevent conflict-of-interest -- for example, to keep the desire to please certain advertisers from influencing editorial content.

Answer 2

A newspaper publisher prints the newpaper after the editor has edited it.

A newspaper publisher (when referring to a person with a title) is the person responsible for the overall management of a newspaper operation. An editor is the executive over the newsroom. An advertising manager manages advertising issues and personnel. A circulation manager handles circulation and distribution. And other departments have their own individual managers. But those managers all answer to the publisher. Generally speaking, it is the person who's responsible for the financial health of the operation and because news content, circulation, advertising sales and more contribute to that financial health, this means he or she is the CEO, if you will, of the newspaper. In a newspaper chain with multiple newspapers, publishers are the on-site managers of the operations in the field.

In terms of what he or she does, it would depend on the exact organizational structure. Historically, publishers have also served as their own newsroom managers, hence the common title "editor and publisher" could be used to refer to them. But "editor" is very specific in meaning the person who is responsible for news content. A newspaper has many more departments that fall outside of the editor's control. That's why in more recent years as newspapers have had to work harder to remain economically viable, the trend among publishers has been toward managing business matters (serving as site manager as well as managing daily business operations) or toward managing advertising (some publishers carry the title ad manager).

For large operations where a publisher does not run an individual department, it simply means that the publisher is the authority all department heads answer to. Hiring, firing, setting the tone for content, ensuring customer needs are met, ensuring sales goals are met, ensuring that expenses are in line, ensuring the newspaper has a presence in the community and making sure budgets are adhered to are some of his or her responsibilities.

When referencing an organization in the following sense: "The XYZ Corporation is the publisher of more than 20 daily newspapers," it means the company or group that owns and operates ("publishes" and "operates" or "manages" are almost synonymous in both contexts) the newspaper.

The missing component in the above excellent answer is the art department which is responsible for layout, presentation and illustrative responsibilities that cross the ad and editorial departments' missions.

Here i am talking about Editor in chief. He/She is the one responsible for all aspects of the news operation, including the content of the paper, hiring, budgets, etc. The editor's involvement with the day-to-day running of the newsroom varies with the size of the paper. On small papers, the editor is very involved; on big papers, maybe less so.

Editor in chief assists by a team of editors. A newspaper prints under a typical hierarchy, which responsible for various aspects of the operation. In this hierarchy first come editor in chief then Managing editor -> Assistant managing editors, Assignment editors and Copy editors.

Assignment editors handle work related to city, state, national and foreign editors (Sports OP-ED, Features, Arts, Photos, Business etc.)

Assistant managing editors works specific area of a newspaper such as sports page, city or metro, business related pages etc.

Copy editors do visualise Copy editing, headline writing, layout and designing, graphic etc.

Answer 4

A magazine designer is someone who handles the look of a publication. Magazine designers build advertisements and graphics, and use photos and other forms of artwork to create covers and inside pages. They need to be highly innovative and understand their magazine's demographic, analyzing trends and paying close attention to what the competition is doing.

Magazine designers meet with editors, circulation directors and advertising managers to coordinate the appearance of their upcoming issue. Occasionally, magazine designers also work with photographers gathering ideas on the best way to present their work. Designers decide on and create things such as typefaces and fonts for the magazine's cover and headlines, as well as which type of artwork will be used with each story, and how the two elements will best be tied together. They also design the all-important "flag," or the title of the magazine that appears at the top of each issue and acts as the publication's trademark or logo. Some design accompanying websites as well.

Skills

A magazine designer must be creative and possess strong communication skills, considering she has to relay her design ideas to editors and other managers. Sometimes she will need to take someone else's idea, such as a client who wants a certain look to an ad, and build on it. She also should have a firm grasp of how to use publication-related design software, such as PhotoShop or Illustrator. On top of those things, magazine designers should be organized and professional, and must be able to work well alone or as a member of a team.

Background

Most magazines prefer candidates with previous experience in creative artwork--either with newspapers or ad agencies--when hiring a designer. Some require a bachelor's degree, with an emphasis on courses in graphic design, communications, printing techniques and perhaps journalism and communications.

Answer 5

A newspaper publisher is the on-the-ground executive responsible to all stakeholders (owners, readers, community leaders, staff members, etc.) for all facets of the newspaper. His or her daily responsibilities may vary depending on the size and support staff of the newspaper in question, but the publisher usually has final local authority on all matters related to the newspaper. With newspapers including many moving parts -- circulation, accounting, sales, editorial content, the art department and more -- the publisher may not be involved in many day-to-day details, but would ultimately be accountable for the performance of the newspaper and for its staff. This is generally reflected by the newspaper's financial performance which includes its circulation and sales strength and management of editorial and other expenses. These details are indicators of how successful a publication's content is with its readers and point to the financial health of the business. The publisher is not necessarily synonymous with the editor, who is the executive responsible for the news content. Generally speaking, the editor reports to the publisher in cases where the two are not one and the same. On occasion, publishers have other departmental duties including managing advertising, the business office or in some cases, running the newsroom (where he or she would be the editor and publisher), though the current industry trend is moving toward sales-oriented publishers.
