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.

Van Kaplan and Pittsburgh CLO have produced several touring productions including the American premiere of Barry Manilow's Copacabana [!!!!!] [Click on the link and you get to hear a smidgeon of the company's EXCELLENT singing! --ED.] and the world premiere of Casper The Musical [Every link is...dead. --ED] starring Chita Rivera, plus the 1998 Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat with Jodi Benson and the Osmonds.
This is one jalopy that should have gone to the scrapyard LONG ago.
P. S. It was set to play in Chicago, Des Moines, Clearwater, Paducah, Huntsville, Hartford, Charlotte, Seattle, Houston, Denver, Boston, San Diego, Tuscon, Costa Mesa, Wilmington, Cleveland, Providence, Raleigh, St. Louis, Schenectady and Grand Rapids! This could have made Energy Crisis II PERMANENT!
