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.

Thank GOD some CONSERVATIVES take OUR SIDE!!!!!
Like Grover Norquist, SLEAZY FRIEND of SLEAZY ARABS.
After L'AFFAIRE DE TOILETTE it appears NOTHING has changed at BLUNDER; we're still out to get conservatives and Republicans, and use our evidence selectively.
OR:
Our television stations produce high-quality local news and information programming and strive to be constructive members of their communities.
Nothing about the REST of the broadcast day, ST. WARREN! HARDY-HAR-HAR!!!!!
Meantime to prove we RESTROOM SCOOPERS are MORAL, we come down hard on kids turning twenty-one drunk. Proof there are SOME causes for which we NEED GOVERNMENT. Never mind kids get drunk at twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen, SIXTEEN....
Which reminds us, so long as there are Devin Gordons, there will be Hitler Diaries, and Joe Kleins, and TOILET BOWLS.
