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.

The WALL STREET JOURNALS, in a rare sign of generosity after people ignored their recent free shtick, run a piece on ST. WARREN that suggests He is a glorified recluse, although anyone honoring His mammoth contributions would dare not utter the word. The piece goes on further to intimate that because so much of ST. WARREN'S HEAVEN resides in His Brain if He dies It will become a MESS. While we would not doubt the ST.'s ability to take It with Him we would think that even the luck of A GOD cannot last forever, as His recent losing streak suggests.
