THE NEWS HACK'S CREED:
I know more than you.
I make lots more money than you.
I'm smarter than you.
I'm sexier than you.
I appear on TV all the time.
I work ten minutes a day.
I rule the universe.
I'm going to live forever.
You are an idiot.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 2:
A lie isn't a lie when it tells THE TRUTH.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 3:
I've come to realize that the looseness of the journalistic life, the seeming laxity of the newsroom, is an illusion. Yes, there's informality and there's humor, but beneath the surface lies something deadly serious. It is a code. Sometimes the code is not even written down, but it is deeply believed in. And, when violated, it is enforced with tribal ferocity.
--JOHN "OMERTA" CARROLL.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 4:
News isn't news when we don't report it.

I WAS FOR THE WAR! HONEST! Hey, you couldn't get more gung-ho gangbusters than me. Why, just weeks before the war started, I was in the Oval Office, and I was telling Dubya -- er, the president, "Mr. President, don't believe all that malarkey I'm feeding the press about how you've failed America, how we'll go down to a ruinous defeat, how we'll never recover from this tragic farce. That's red meat for the core constituents, and you know what loony lef -- how passionate they are." No, I said, you go out there, Mr. President, and WHOOP SADDAM'S...er, our president did GREAT!
