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.

Here's a prediction: knowing how THE LORD GOD PINCH is, He may try to fix His experiment -- by PUTTING MORE STUFF BEHIND HIS WALL. I'm thinking next would be arts and culture -- just like the LALATIMES. Making the whole site paid is NOT OUT OF THE QUESTION. Pinch is like the LEGENDARY Roberto Goizueta, the man who invented New Coke with a cigarette in his mouth: His motto is, if it ain't broke, fix it -- again and again and again.

P. S. We note the number-one e-mailed story -- it's STILL the one about a DOG FLU VIRUS -- is NUMBER TWENTY-TWO FOR THE MONTH. This suggests people are hardly e-mailing the number-one story. Which means if people aren't e-mailing the NUMBER-ONE STORY, perhaps the latest NUMBER TWENTY-TWO is SLIGHTLY MORE POPULAR THAN MY BLOG!
