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.

``Snakes on a Plane," the movie for which the title carries the entire ``weight" of the ``plot," is fast becoming the summer release you needn't bother seeing. The Internet has spent months lampooning the upcoming Samuel L. Jackson thriller, and I've seen not only the trailer (``Enough is enough! I've had it with these snakes!"), parodies of the trailer, minimovies cut from the trailer, the music video, and also a hilarious parody of the music video.The movie biz has no future. We smile.
