Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Editor
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
A chairman presides over a conference. In publishing, the role that presides over content and issues final decisions is the editor (specifically, editor-in-chief). We must mirror “event/publication → presiding authority.”
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:
Preserve “institution/medium → presiding authority.” Select the role with ultimate editorial control analogous to chairing/moderating.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Conference → chairman.Newspaper → editor.
Verification / Alternative check:
Industry structure: editor-in-chief sets standards and finalizes content—the closest analogue to a chairman’s presiding function.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
(a) Reporter – contributor; (b) Distributor – logistics; (c) Printer – production, not content control.
Common Pitfalls:
Choosing a visible contributor (reporter) instead of the presiding decision-maker (editor).

Editor
