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.

Some hack named Rutten ties himself into such knots proving Hollywood is not liberal he may have to work in a freak show. Yes, Hollywood has had more than its share of reactionary cranks, but they're virtually all in the past, and the overwhelming ethos of the biz is liberal -- how can it not be with SYNERGY? And hasn't The Human Rope heard the acronym RINO? Yes, "everybody does business with everybody" (said the famed bootlegger Joseph P. Kennedy, who had his mistress Gloria Swanson get an abortion -- great choice of experts, Tim!), but as the continuing harangues over The Ten demonstrate, in politics Hollywood never forgets.
