What is the difference between a editor and a managing editor?

Lisa Sandmeyer (long time Topeka Capital Journal editor--copy I think) " The ME generally runs the newsroom. "Editor" is more a job description. In a newsroom, you'll have a city editor, who manages assignments; a news editor, who runs the copy desk; a sports editor, who runs that section; a features editor, who runs those sections; and copy editors, who edit stories and write headlines."
