Hierarchical structure
A hierarchical structure is a pictorial representation of the vertical line of command among the members in an organisation.
The hierarchical structure of different agency varies but usually follows a common pattern.
Example of the hierarchical structure of a newspaper agency

Editors for separate topics like science, City, sports, business,
↓

Although there is no formula of making a hierarchical structure of a news agency, usually a general structure is followed.
The publisher stays at the top.
Rest looks like: Publisher-editor in chief- managing editor-news editor.
Under news editor different editors report and under the editors sub- editors and correspondents and photographers work.
Writers can be of in-house category or freelancers genre.
