each department has specified task. The idea is to divide work into manageable pieces, to make for
better supervision and to set benchmark for optimum performance.

Newspaper organization has several departments which have their own tasks to be performed with
certain staffs taking charges of several jobs.

All newspapers regardless of size and reach have three major divisions: the editorial, business and
production divisions, each with a variety of sub-divisions that may differ from paper to paper, according
to size and operations. Overseeing all the sections is the publisher or a chief executive who makes
editorial policies and is in charge of the personality of the paper. The editorial section oversees the
editorial matter of the newspaper: all else but advertising. The business section is in charge of financial
affairs and advertising from which the paper is sustained. The production division is in charge of printing
the newspaper.
