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 of today we can throw all this GARBAGE about the INDEPENDENCE of SUEPRDUPERMEGAGIGABLOGGERS out the WINDOW. We'd thrown it out ourselves a long time ago. It's only a matter of time before the PROFESSOR is part of the MESS's site, and STERNO's part of nytimes.com, and the BLOGGERS OF THE MILLENNIUM and the BIG-GUY BLOGGER for the LITTLE GUY work for RUPERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, and the idiot NICK DORKEN's empire's part of SI's, and so on. And so on and so on. And so on and so on and so on. As this happens bloggers will divide into two camps: BIGMEDIA types and the failures.

Our only consolation is knowing that BIGMEDIA BLOGGERS are doing just what BIGMEDIA are doing: FLAILING, like the DINOSAURS after that alleged ASTEROID.

Or aren't BIGMEDIA DINOSAURS when we WORK FOR THEM?

At least there are a few writers like Chris Hitchens and Mark Steyn who will never blog, and arguably have more influence than the WHOLE GAGGLE OF BLOGGERS.
