What do subeditors do?
| 7 notes
If you want to know, head this way:
Subs, or subeditors, can get a lot of stick on this site, and many people aren’t really sure what we’re here for – except perhaps to mess up copy or write boring/wrong/sensational headlines. But we are basically the last line of defence – whether we save a writer from a legal suit, looking daft or being simply unintelligible – and our furniture (headlines, standfirsts – also known as subheadings – and captions) can be decisive in whether a story is read or ignored.
