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 guess Ah-NULT is going to run, given he's making the announcement on Leno. That will be a happy day for the knee-jerk Republicans. The hacks should ask him tough questions, but they won't because he's in SHOW-BIZ, and SHOW-BIZ is PERFECT -- unless, of course, they remember (as they will) that he's an EEEEEEEEEEEEVIL REPUBLICAN -- but even then they won't as SHOW-BIZ trumps evil.

Two predictions: Ah-NULT will be in over his musclebound head (Ronald Reagan at least ran a union for years and was politically active, so there's no comparison); and his wife becomes the de facto governor.
