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 don't want to complain, but I'm tired of writing for myself. I've been at this blog for going on fourteen months, averaging at least fifteen posts a day, and I can't get anybody to do anything but click on my catch-as-catch-can links on GoogleBlogger, read one word and then go elsewhere. Am I that bad? If I were some teenage airhead fantasizing about his (more likely her) sex life I could understand, but I'd think by now I'd have even the smallest audience. Please, don't just click and walk away, read me for a second, and at least pay me a little attention.

I don't like writing like this, but some days I get so bewildered and frustrated.
