At my first paper, which didn't have a copy desk (!), everyone had an editor's title (on the news side).

Executive Editor
Managing Editor
Deputy Managing Editor
Senior Editor
Associate Editor
Assistant Editor
Entertainment Editor
Wire Editor

And 9 reporters.

Needless to say, that all got blown up once a new regime took over.

 

Thanks for the input.

As a sports staff, we have an SE and three full time writers (two of us who also take turns on the desk) and one part timer. It's about the perfect mix for what we cover.

In news we have:
Executive Editor
Managing Editor
City Editor
Asst. City Editor
Wire Editor
Asst. Wire Editor
Editorial Page Editor
Obit Editor
Family Editor

Reporters
2 Family reporters (One is unfilled)
City Reporter
County Reporter
Business Reporter
Crime Reporter
Education Reporter
3 General Assignment reporters
