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.

Cog of EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL (roll the eyes), an ordinary Joe named Fred Olivi who co-piloted the bomber that a-bombed Nagasaki in '45 is dead. "While thousands died, I feel sure the bomb had to be dropped because if the Americans had been forced to invade Japan, it would have been a bloodbath,'' he said. The Japanese surrendered shortly thereafter. He didn't like the Smithsonian's oh-so-PC Enola Gay exhibit. He was right to be ticked. It was the effete snobs versus the little guys, and little guys won the war. Sorry NEWS HACKS, since our founding our fighting men have been 99% RIGHT. May he RIP.

It is impossible to read a story like this without hearing the GAGGING and RETCHING in America's luxury news suites. My contempt for this business grows ever stronger.
