COPY EDITORS
Copy Editors proofread all the written material that goes into magazines, books, newspapers, and web sites. There are also Scientific, Technical, and Medical (STM) Copy Editors. The job of Copy Editor can be divided between proofreading and cleaning the text of writers. Proofreading requires a complete knowledge of grammatical rules, spelling, and various copy editing marks. The good Copy Editor can also cut out the fat in a manuscript, suggest changes for clarity, and work with a writer to produce a better product. Copy Editors are needed and esteemed members of a team that includes writers, editors, and graphic artists. If you have any questions about careers in copy editing don't hesitate to ask!

more information
Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics Top What these workers do Writers and editors write! Writers write stories, or they write about things that really happened. They write books, and they write articles for magazines or journals. They write for newspapers, and they write for radio and television. Editors tell writers what to write about. They also decide if what a writer has written is good or not so good. If it is not so good, they change the words to make it good. When a writer begins to write, he or she gathers information. The writer may get this information just by looking or by doing research at the library. Or the writer may interview someone. Writers write something, and then they change it. Then they change it again. They keep changing it until they feel they get it right.
There are different kinds of writers. Newswriters write for newspapers or news broadcasts. Columnists write about people, places, and things. Editorial writers write how they feel about something. Technical writers give instructions on how to use a machine or how to do something. Copy writers write ads.
Editors write, too. They also review, rewrite, and change the words of writers. But their most important job is to plan what should be in a book, a magazine, or a newspaper. They decide what to print based on what they think readers will want to read. They assign topics to writers. And they make sure that the book, magazine, or newspaper comes out on time.

Would you red-pencil "Hopefully, the dog went home"? What should the subject of comprised be, the whole or the parts? Copy editors and editors who have to deal with such matters of usage often seem surprised when they cannot find the answers in Chicago. That is not the place to look, but there are sources where some of these issues are discussed. As the language changes, more questionable usages arise. This course will help editors be aware of what usages are contested by the authorities and will offer objective criteria by which they can decide where they will take their stand.

      Significant Points
      • Competition is expected to be less for lower paying, entry-level jobs at small daily and weekly newspapers, trade publications, and radio and television broadcasting stations in small markets. Persons who fail to gain better paying jobs or earn enough as independent writers usually are able to transfer readily to communications-related jobs in other occupations.
      Nature of the Work About this section Index Writers and editors communicate through the written word. Writers develop original fiction and nonfiction for books, magazines and trade journals, newspapers, technical reports, online distribution, company newsletters, radio and television broadcasts, movies, and advertisements. Editors Writers either select a topic or are assigned one by an editor. Then they gather information through personal observation, library and Internet research, and interviews. Writers select the material they want to use, organize it into a meaningful format, and use the written word to express ideas and convey information to readers. Often, writers revise or rewrite sections, searching for the best organization or the right phrasing.
