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.

HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT A MAN USING A FAKE NAME, WITH DUBIOUS JOURNALISM CREDENTIALS, WAS ABLE TO CLEAR THE WHITE HOUSE’S EXTENSIVE SECURITY SCREENING PROCESS AND GAIN SUCH CLOSE ACCESS TO YOU AND YOUR STAFF FOR SUCH AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME??? HAVE THERE BEEN OTHER, SIMILAR BREACHES OF SECURITY AND JOURNALISM STANDARDS????? WE APPRECIATE YOUR PROMPT ATTENTION TO THIS IMPORTANT MATTER!!! WE URGE YOU TO ORDER A FULL INQUIRY SO THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE KNOW THE FACTS!!!!!
I think Dubya should order a full inquiry of Congress myself.
Love your reporting, SHTROOOOP. You quote FOUR DEMOCRATS and ZERO REPUBLICANS. That's FAIRNESS.
