The board of editors, also known as the editorial board, is the authority on official policy and endorsed style on Bulbanews. They can be considered the highest authority on Bulbanews, with power to set official policy, endorse non-binding guidelines, appoint and dismiss staff members, and approve and reject news articles, columns and opinion pieces.
