General editor

As we watched in the movie, the job of the general editor is the most important in the newspaper. He is the responsible of the entire newspaper. The general editor has to verify the news that are published, he has to take care of the group of people that work in the newspaper, specially of the journalist, and is the responsible of the consequences that the news can bring to the journalist and the entire community.

He has to not only we aware of the veracity of the news, but also he has to take care of a top quality in the editorial line. One of the most important duties of the general editor is to know all the important people in the country. The journalist investigates, but with the help of the general editor that know a lot of sources, is that the job of the journalist is easier and they can be efficient.

The job of the general editor is to know all the important situations that are happening in the country, and in the world. In other words, he has to know about everything, knowing this, he says to the journalist what to research, to give the people the truth of what is happening in the world.

He also has to be the link between the journalist and the owner of the newspaper. He has to supervise the news until them are published.

So the job of the general editor is very important. He is the face of the newspaper, is the link between the source and the journalist, the community with the newspaper, and the journalist with the owner of the newspaper. As everyone see, been general editor is not easy, perhaps the most interesting, but the most difficult job also.

HOLIDAY

The entire holiday I spent with my family and I did so much fun activities that I wouldn’t even imagine.

The first days, I was very bored in home, and immediately I supposed that it would be the same way all the holiday.

Luckily, my brother and his wife came to Quito to visit her family, and they invited all of us to know their new home. So we (older sister, brother, sister in law, parents of my sister in law) went near Ibarra, where is the house. Over there, we enjoyed a lot. The house is very big, and had a huge backyard where you can do a lot of things. So we practiced sports and compete with each others. It was very entertaining.

With my sister in law prepared a lot of activities, we had a special meal and my sister, my sister in law and myself organized a championship of all kind of games. First was poker but always won the guys. So we decided to play bingo and jenga. This was awesome, because was women against men. Of course the ladies were the winners at the end of the evening.

The next day, we prepared a cinema day. All of us agree in two movies, those were very funny, but we finished watching them very early and none of us wanted to go to bed. So my brother had the best idea of all the holyday, on making a bonfire. Then we prepared some snacks, and started talking about everything. Then my sister, started telling a scary story, and everyone continued with them. When we realized the hour, it was very late night, but all of us were very scared so anyone wanted to go to bed. So we stayed awake all the night, and the next day we prepared to come back to Quito.

As I said, it was very nice holiday, not only for all the fun activities I did, but be the good time I spent with my family. Perhaps when a holiday is coming up, what the young people want is, to go to parties, clubbing, go to beach with friends or with our boyfriend, specially go as far as we can of our parents. But in this holiday I learned that I can spend a good time with grownups and do a lot of fun activities with them.
