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.

In a press release that inspired a press release, Regal Entertainment Group has announced it's banning certain videogames from its lobbies for their content. If there were justice the company should be scathingly ridiculed, for what it bans in the lobbies it allows on its screens, and one can be sure Regal (like its partners in the popcorn-palace industry) relies on its stupid ushers to "enforce" JACK'S ALPHABET SOUP, which thus goes defacto unenforced.

And as if proof were needed these imbeciles don't know their rear ends from a hole in the ground, here's a schedule (FOR ADVERTISERS!) of upcoming releases for the next four months.
