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.

How do we SIXSIGMA our way out of NUMBER FOUR, ZUCKER?
"It's never been so close. There's never been such parity between the four networks."
TRANSLATION: The networks aren't fighting for first, they're fighting to AVOID LAST.
P. S. Hey ZUCK! Don't you realize PARITY is a word SPORTS HACKS use when they want to describe MEDIOCRITY? You don't even have THAT fall-back position. You SHOULD have said BOTTOM-FEEDING.

WHOM THE LORD GOD PINCH BE FOR....
Sean Huze enlisted in the Marine Corps right after the Sept. 11 attacks and was, in his own words, "red, white and blue all the way" when he deployed to Iraq 16 months later. Unquestioning in his support of the invasion, he grew irritated when his father, a former National Guardsman, expressed doubts about the war.
Today, all that has changed. Haunted by the civilian casualties he witnessed, Corporal Huze has become one of a small but increasing number of Iraq veterans who have formed or joined groups to oppose the war or to criticize the way it is being fought.
The two most visible organizations - Operation Truth, of which Corporal Huze is a member, and Iraq Veterans Against the War....
Now we know GOD does NOT use a computer because it would never occur to Him that maybe people on the Web would look up these sites. Yes, GOD, we CAN GOOGLE. As in Iraq Veterans Against the War.* And Sean has developed looney left bonafides easily.
QUITE UNBIASED OF YOU, GOD. Can we expect another cutesy-pie essay from Your cherubim THE PUBLIC EDI-TOR musing why people don't like his Employer because -- some think He's LIBERAL?
*We found few incriminating links for Operation Truth, but they'll come now that GOD has BLESSED it. Let us note many of the links above, praise be to PINCH, seem to revolve around stories from His BOSTON WORD.

MORE comedy from CURLEY'S (Nyuk! Nyuk! Nyuk!) STOOGES:
California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger should be stripped of citizenship in his native Austria for approving the execution of a convicted killer, a leading Austrian politician said Saturday.
Peter Pilz, a top official with the environmentalist Green Party....
EIGHTH GRAF:
It appeared unlikely that the Greens, a leftist opposition party which holds just a handful of seats in parliament, would persuade Austria's conservative government to revoke Schwarzenegger's citizenship.
But with NEWS HACKS, it's THE THOUGHT THAT COUNTS!

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaad news, STERNO -- as I might have predicted:
Since his appointment to the FCC in 2001, [Kevin J.] Martin [GENERAL JR.'s most likely replacement] has appeared to follow a more stringent deregulatory path than Powell in certain matters, yet in others he can be more bent on using regulation to achieve results. He also is considered more hard-line on indecency issues than Powell, who has drawn fire from broadcast executives for taking them to task for sexually explicit content.
OKAY STERNO, time for your YOSEMITE SAM act:
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!!!!!!!!!

COX-2 inhibitors cost 10 to 15 times as much as the drugs they replaced, the study published in the Archives of Internal Medicine said.
NOT OUR MONEY!
Within a year of being introduced in 1999, Vioxx and Celebrex were being heavily promoted as "super-aspirin" and bringing in billions of dollars in revenue annually, the study said. Merck spent $161 million in 2000 on direct-to-consumer marketing of Vioxx, it said.
That's a lot of junk television and INVESTIGATIVE REPORTS to pay for.

Our HEROES are ready for a Nine-Finger transplant:
The People for the American Way has a war room with 50 work stations and plans to mobilize more than 1,000 groups against any Bush choice considered a threat to civil rights.
Does that include this group? Or this?
We're sure they're already ready.

'Moesha' actor killed in auto accident
No disrespect intended, but would anyone have written, "Screwball comedienne killed in plane crash," or "Angry young actor killed in high-speed car crash"? We've seen a lot of these heds lately. Which should tell us our age lacks something. (Although all it tells the NEWS HACK TOADIES is, SHOW-BIZ IS BETTER THAN EVER!!!!!)

I'm not so sure a president who fought a war with Mexico and got Texas and the Southwest to boot should be called a "milquetoast."
Which raises the question: what would BUGMEISTER BILL be without his CODE?
Sorry to complain but this exasperates me: I got ten hits (the usual pittance) in five hours this morning -- and though I've posted six times since I HAVEN'T GOTTEN ANY FURTHER HITS! I wonder if this too is G000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000GLEBLOGGER at work. How can I hope to have ANYBODY read me? If I'm not that good I can understand, and perhaps that's the problem -- but why do I think the problem also lies with some sort of huge on-off switch with its own half-brain?
Well, for what it's worth, I'm no. 121,811 on PubSub. I was around 1,000,000 a month ago -- and 2,000,000 once in the last two weeks. What do these numbers MEAN?

What editors usually say about Pulitzer Prize-winning stories
Daily Breeze (Torrance, CA)
"They should have seen that piece of junk before I cleaned it up." JOHN BOGERT ON SELECTING CONTEST ENTRIES: "I just wish that I could avoid the tortured self-analysis that comes with sifting through the year's work, rereading things that sounded so cool at press time but that now sound like dated, truncated, overblown failures."
NUF SAID.

More proof that, old management or new, the CW is SAFE at TOENAIL.COM:
The Hollywood movies that dominated the mid-1980s consisted of titles like Porky's Revenge. The 1970s had seen a flurry of GREATNESS, when directors like Martin Scorsese and Robert Altman had briefly usurped power from the studios, but in the following decade American film became something of a wasteland. The studios had regained control and began to churn out an endless stream of sex comedies.
FORTUNATELY (we're talking Robert Redford's "BLOATED, DECADENT" film festival -- at least that's what the typically misleading home-page link says)...
[T]he Sundance program gradually improved as the films became riskier, more adventurous. Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs played three years after sex, lies, and videotape, and The Usual Suspects played three years after that.
So -- despite running an "ad campaign" now, Bob put his heart in the right place...and MOVIES ARE BETTER THAN EVER!!!!!

P. S.
Others that contributed $250,000 [like THE TWXSTERS] included Bristol-Myers Squibb, ChevronTexaco, Exxon Mobil, FedEx, Pfizer, Aflac, Home Depot and Bank of America. [And ALTRIA MOTIVE, the JUNIOR CLUNKER BROTHER and AT&T too!] Those contributing $100,00 [sic] [like BUFFETTMEDIA] included Qualcomm, SBC Communications, Coca-Cola Co., and Microsof [sic] Corp.

Jazz died decades ago; Christie's and Sotheby's are now holding the funeral.
This should help explain it:
One auction piece from [John Coltrane's widow's] house in California - the original sheet-music sketches for Coltrane's 1964 suite "A Love Supreme," among the most important works in jazz - bears explicit notes and markings in Coltrane's hand. ("Make ending attempt to reach transcendent level"; "Rising harmonies to a level of blissful stability at end"; "Last chord to sound like final chord of 'Alabama.' ") These two pages, which have never been seen by scholars, aren't just a curio: they will affect scholarship.
No, we don't have jazz music anymore, but we have plenty of JAZZ SCHOLARSHIP.

Alas, the goons and their masters are talking again. I cannot see the NHL jumping off the roof any more than I could see baseball in '95 persisting with its folly after a few replacement spring-training games. The life of a sport is at stake, and it's already received last rites from broadcasters.
Besides, I can't stand to see a grown Canadian cry.

I must confess between G000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000GLEBLOGGER'S BREAKDOWNS and the long stretches without hits I am getting very discouraged about continuing. What's the point of blogging if you're merely talking to yourself? I don't have connections and I don't have admirers and I don't have flacks, even though I'd put my malarkey up against the best of them. And God knows the best in the blogging trade are sometimes not very good.
Skimming through the ever useful IWantMedia.com, I find The Mooner says the networks are still proudly flicking the middle finger in viewers' faces, and the TWXSTERS say an obscure opt-out clause for SI subscribers re THE SWIMSUIT ISSUE is NOT due to EEEEEEEEEEVIL CONSERVATISM.
Now to make it complete we need THE SUGAR DADDIES of ADVERTISING to DOUBLE their outlays, and maybe The Mooner to deny there was ever hanky panky in his news outhouse.

Fumblers, Bumblers and Incompetents are looking for "four Chinese and two Iraqis" who may pose "a terrorist threat" -- or who may just be four Chinese and two Iraqis.
Meanwhile, the Associated Press is reporting that a federal law enforcement official has stressed the tip is one of many from around the country that routinely are forwarded to local task forces for further investigation. No credible, specific terror threat has been identified in connection with the tip about suspects possibly entering the country from Mexico.
Thus it is, always.

An his-TO-rian uses 1,182 WORDS to bloviate why inaugural address stink when the answer requires far fewer: our education system stinks, public oratory stinks, most recent presidents have stunk, and, let us face it, WE STINK, for demanding so little of OURSELVES.
I don't know if it has chiasmus, anaphora or anastrophe, but it sure is less than 1,182 WORDS.

This is too easy. A DONALD musical has infinite possibilities in satire. Think of all the songs to parody! We start off with the TRUMPSTER in a vault singing "We're In the Money" (only it's our DAD's money) and we end it with ol' DON on his knees, pleading to his bondholders before being handcuffed, "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" It's RICH -- I mean, it's LOADED with possibilities -- not the least of them being the DONALD, who is a walking musical comedy without a tune.
And maybe we can steal a few melodies from the opera too! I'm thinking The Barber of Seville -- in honor of THE TRUMPSTER'S HAIR.

Hmm, now that Ashlee has her own fan club I'm wondering if we've come down too hard on the poor girl.
I blame it on her godforsaken FATHER, and the IDIOTS at THE FORMER FRENCH WATER WORKS, and their @#$^&* ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE -- and the NEWS HACKS who PLUG HER EVERY BLASTED DAY.

In answer to the damned nuisance cell phones have become, Wired.com has three suggestions:
1. Business cards politely asking the user to shut up;
2. Phone booths (I thought cell phones were supposed to rid us of phone booths!); and
3. TEXT MESSAGING.
Super glue might be better.

I must post this in full -- as will a thousand others:
MEMPHIS, Tennessee (AP) -- Defense attorney Leslie Ballin called it the "jury pool from hell."
The group of prospective jurors was summoned to listen to a case of Tennessee trailer park violence.
Right after jury selection began last week, one man got up and left, announcing, "I'm on morphine and I'm higher than a kite."
When the prosecutor asked if anyone had been convicted of a crime, a prospective juror said that he had been arrested and taken to a mental hospital after he almost shot his nephew. He said he was provoked because his nephew just would not come out from under the bed.
Another would-be juror said he had had alcohol problems and was arrested for soliciting sex from an undercover officer. "I should have known something was up," he said. "She had all her teeth."
Another prospect volunteered he probably should not be on the jury: "In my neighborhood, everyone knows that if you get Mr. Ballin (as your lawyer), you're probably guilty." He was not chosen.
The case involved a woman accused of hitting her brother's girlfriend in the face with a brick. Ballin's client was found not guilty.
First thing we do, let's kill all the JURORS.

Now STERNO!!!!! will NEVER SHUT UP: LES "MOONER" MOONVES "DID NOT RULE OUT" USING THE EDWARD R. MURROW OF COMEDY ON HIS NIGHTLY COMEDY -- NEWS SHOW!!!!!!!!!! STERNO BECOMES A GOD IN THE INDUSTRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Calm down, STERNO (not that you can); ED would probably be used in "humorous" essays (VIACON Network News has had them for years), and it is highly unlikely he'd actually emcee the show for reasons I've spelled out before (although given that HHHWWWALTER CRRRONKITE JR. seems to have gotten much of his humorlessness from his stint on GE BANCORP ENTERTAINMENT'S NIGHTLY NEWS anything IS possible). Perhaps in the back of his diamond-encrusted pea brain The Mooner realizes the damage DANNO and MARY did to his news operation is irreparable, so he can talk about multiple anchors and ED and hiring that pompous ass LORD KOPPEL of ESPNCORP (65 on Feburary 8) or Pee-TAH (67 on July 29) and "reinventing the news" (code for screwing up fancily). If it sticks to the wall -- God knows our NEWS can't.
I have a suggestion, Mooner: why not NO ANCHORS? You'd save yourself MILLIONS that you could use to produce FIVE MORE JUNKY COMEDY CENTRAL SHOWS!
Prediction: KATIE'S IN -- and then the fun REALLY begins.

And speaking of LITTLE JEFFREY, BUSINESSWEEK (DilbertSpell) is busy with its privies again, working itself into an ECSTASTIC FIT over the idea GE BANCORP could buy out THE TWXSTERS. It won't happen because 1. People (read, CONGRESSPOOPS) will complain, and 2. How would Jeffy SIXSIGMA GOODWILL?

OH oh, guess who's changed its MANAGEMENT:
The naming of Stephen Cooper as CEO of Krispy Kreme, and Steven Panagos as chairman, may be an ominous sign. Cooper succeeds Scott Livengood, who "retired." Livengood was named by this column as the worst CEO of 2004.
As chairman and managing director of turnaround firm Kroll Zolfo Cooper, Cooper is also interim CEO of Enron and has a history of being brought into companies in dire financial straits. Before Enron he served as vice chairman of Laidlaw, which, like Enron, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. Laidlaw emerged from bankruptcy in 2003.
Panagos, meanwhile, is currently chief restructuring officer of Penn Traffic Co., which has also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy. In fact, most companies cited in the press release announcing Krispy Kreme's management change, including Polaroid, NRG Energy and ICG Communications, have filed for bankruptcy.
Sign? It's a flat-out HEX!

The nation's largest Bible publisher, rolling out its biggest marketing campaign ever to promote a new translation aimed at "spiritually intrigued 18- to 34-year-olds," has stumbled over a little rock: Rolling Stone.
The magazine rejected Zondervan's Bible ad just weeks before its scheduled run date, citing an unwritten policy against accepting ads containing religious messages.
Doesn't SIEG-HEIL JANN run ads for CULTS?
Caveat: The nation's largest Bible publisher is owned by that holy roller RUPERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P. S. SIEG-HEIL JANN ran ads for MAIL-ORDER DIVINITY DEGREES! (Letter from Dennis Persica, 3:11:33 p.m.)

Der Homeland again:
In April, Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge announced that al Qaeda terrorists might strike during this week's presidential inauguration festivities in Washington. The warning was part of a drumbeat sounded by U.S. officials throughout 2004 that terrorists were seeking to launch attacks both during and after the election season.
Nine months later, the threat level has been lowered, and Ridge, speaking at a news conference last week, said there is no evidence of a plot to disrupt President Bush's inauguration. Previous warnings, Ridge explained, stemmed from threat reports tied to the elections -- not to the inauguration more than two months later....
The shift in rhetoric about the dangers posed by terrorists during the inauguration marks the latest retreat from last year's terrorism warnings, which, in retrospect, were based largely on faulty intelligence, dated information or -- as with the inauguration -- an educated guess.
So why not called it the Department of Educated Guesses and Bureaucracy Shuffling and be done with it?

Music group 50 Foot Wave's bad timing
New album released to critics a week before tsunami hit
Bad timing? CURLEY'S (Nyuk! Nyuk! Nyuk!) STOOGES just hit YOU the JACKPOT!!!!!
Don't you have better things to do, nyuk-nyuks? Like maybe poking your eyes out or shooting yourselves to the moon?

What do NEWS HACKS and SHOW-BIZ types have most in common? They give themselves AWARDS, GAGGLES of AWARDS, by which tokens of self-esteem they can set their achievements in the FIRMAMENT. YELL it to the world that BILL SHATNER won an award for BEST SUPPORTING AC-TOR in a TV SERIES! (He still works? I thought that ended with his singing career.) SCREAM it to the world that LEO looks EXACTLY LIKE HOWARD HUGHES! BRAG it to the world that we're in a SUPERPLATINUM AGE OF ENTERTAINMENT! This is one reason why both professions draw TOADIES out of the woodwork, why they have an uncomfortable resemblance to prostitution (literally and figuratively), and why their much-proclaimed excellence dies when today's paper becomes tomorrow's puppy fodder, or with the inevitable reruns.
Possibly I'm not looking hard enough, but I notice there is not as much HECTORING on this day as on such days past. What I mean, of course, is NEWS HACKS LECTURING US ON RACE RELATIONS. Possibly they've come to realize that in a year topped by BLATHERGATE they're in no position to lecture us on anything. The sad thing is, we need a national conscience. Problem is, news hacks suffer from a SELECTIVE CONSCIENCE, all too eagerly yelling at us for our foibles but keeping stone quiet on their own, or their ideology's. This year is the perfect time to let this holiday become what it was destined to become -- another day off for the civil service, another excuse for department-store ads.
George Clooney is writing me letters again, and that can only mean trouble.
Yep, once more we must all share in No Spin Spin Spin Spin Spin Zone's heartburn.

And forever true to its NEUHARTHIAN calling, USAOKAY!!!!! sells -- TELLS the world DaimlerCorp may sell its tiny "Smart" cars here.
I doubt they'd be so smart wedged between two big DUMB cars.
$14,000 doesn't sound that SMART either.

WELL, here's something I can post about; a supermodel "admits" (or rather, publicizes, these being CURLEY'S [Nyuk! Nyuk! Nyuk!] STOOGES) she's "dull." I'm glad she's had the lack of courage and the surfeit of publicists to do so, for supermodels must be dull; they pose all day, and talk none; and they date superstuds who by their professions (athuhlete, rocker) are EXCEEDINGLY dull. They could converse in total silence. (Or should, given their penchant for wrecking hotel rooms with their dullness.) At least the sex symbols of the past weren't dull: MM wanted to think, and for that purpose married Arthur Miller, which for that and other purposes might not have been the best idea; and before her Gypsy Rose wanted to "write," and she lived for a time in a place in Brooklyn with Oliver Smith, W. H. Auden and Benjamin Britten* (obviously THEY weren't going to try to strip HER). But these were interesting people, and they lived in interesting times -- unlike ours, where an ineloquent dyslexic is president, and we're overwhelmed with "SUPERMODELS."
P. S. I've looked up this supermodel's "site" (it's officially unofficial), and as I could have guessed, she isn't that pretty, she's skinny, and she has that typical supermodel facial torpor. So yes, we can agree -- she's EXTREMELY dull.
*Plug not intended. I do hope, though, it's a good book -- but given how it's already been pigeonholed I'd guess it has lots of big words, and DULL prose.

Seeing as how I've had little to post today -- and seeing as how people aren't dropping by my page anyhow -- I thought I'd dispense with this idle idea: if only I had musical talent (I did practice the piano as a kid, and as I've said before one of my ambitions was to write musicals, alas), but anyway, if I had musical talent I'd write a sonata for tuba and piccolo. I'd call it The Elephant and the Flea.
The news industry's latest excuse: DANNO was "EXHAUSTED."
I'd be EXHAUSTED TOO -- after probing this story for FIVE YEARS.
And of COURSE it had nothing, NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with BIAS.
