Analogy — Map overseer/lead role by medium: Conference : Chairman :: Newspaper : ?

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:

• Chairman oversees proceedings of a conference.
• Editor oversees content and publication decisions for a newspaper.
• Reporter gathers news; printer handles printing; distributor handles circulation.

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).

Final Answer:Editor
