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 am not sure what this book is supposed to prove. If the purpose is to diminish Blue, it may not have added much to what the liar Kitty Kelley did, for Blue was a self-diminishing figure; on the other hand, the stories do make it harder to accept what he did before the mike, but then it is impossible to listen to him, even in his best moments, without a tang of jealousy.

And isn't it a little late in the day for the alleged comedian and full-time pathos-man Jerry Lewis to say Blue was a Mafia bagman? This is news?

(Good hed from this RUPERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! outfit: Fly Me to the Mob. Actually RUPERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'s a kind of mogul version of Blue except He can't sing and has no known talents other than sleaze.)
