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.

Katie is the real-life story of Lucy Van Pelt growing up to be a queen. Only she gets to be -- a GODDESS. If we were her we'd check on our immortality. When DAN BLATHER started he faced the professional crank Reed Irvine and little else. Now there's BRENTCORP and a whole army of bias spotters; The BLOGGERS OF THE MILLENNIUM no doubt have dozens of interns looking for fonts. And Katie has the added advantage of having said and done stupid things. Katie won't bomb -- that's highly unlikely -- but with thousands of gnats buzzing over her every word it will not be a walk into the pantheon of -- GODS.
