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.

Focus: Camilla: The It Girl of 2006
Any article that introduces us to the bozo who "invented" the term "metrosexual" (who worked for an AD AGENCY) and who further insists on bleating "Camilla is going to be the next great lifestyle icon" is not worth reading.
It wasn't that long ago that the TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! went behind North Korea's fence; but we expect nothing from RUPERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
