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.

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

It is sobering to think how much TEENS have destroyed our culture. We must remember it was hordes of snivelling, whimpering lamebrained teen girls who cried all the way through Titanic, making it the most popular bad movie of all time, and now the teens are getting their horror movie fix from a similar fluke in droves. The IDIOTS who call this a SPIRITUAL AWAKENING have a lot to answer for -- not the least their own depthless stupidity.
If I'm right about this, I take back my earlier comments about POPCORN.
