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.

As we might have predicted, Larry "Dick Grasso Doesn't Make Enough" Kudlow and Dow 36,000 are dancing on their desks over Christopher Cox' appointment, which may be a bad sign. Or then again, maybe they don't know their rear ends from a hole in the ground, as we'd suspect from a man who thinks Dick Grasso didn't make enough and another man who thought the Dow would reach 36,000.

We take comfort in one thing: con-SER-va-tives fell one over another imitating Tony the Tiger when Dubya appointed that show-biz financier and social climber at Kellogg's -- and we haven't heard from him since. Hmmm, that may be a bad sign: he's giving the store away PRIVATELY.
