Редакционная коллегия: состав, функции и история

Group of experts that dictate a publication's editorial policy
The editorial board is a group of editors, writers, and other people who are charged with implementing a publication's approach to editorials and other opinion pieces. The editorials published normally represent the views or goals of the publication's owner or publisher.

At a newspaper, the editorial board usually consists of the editor responsible for the editorial page and editorial writers. Some newspapers include other personnel as well. Some editorial writers may also have other roles in the publication. Editorial boards for magazines may include experts in the subject area that the magazine focuses on, and larger magazines may have several editorial boards grouped by subject. An executive editorial board, which usually includes the executive editor and representatives from the subject focus boards, may oversee these subject boards. Editorial boards meet regularly to discuss the latest news and opinion trends and to discuss what the publication should say on a range of issues, including current events. Some newspapers, particularly small ones, do not have an editorial board, choosing instead to rely on the judgment of a single editorial page editor. In the 1700s, if any editorial were published, it had typically written by the owner or was an op ed. Some editorial boards additionally publish blogs, where they can publish additional information and interact with readers. Early editorial board blogs, such as CBS's Public Eye blog, were associated with reporting scandals.
