_______________are the ones picking up the books for a publisher, and the go-to for the author while prepping a book for publication.

News editing is making a news copy good for the medium (online, mobile, print, etc) and readable, correcting factual and syntactical errors, giving the required shape and size by using the right kind of expressions and styles.
