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.

Is it me or have the hacks really been giving it the old college try these last few weeks -- as in trying our patience? Their media-police-state campaigning for Democrats has reached a blood-curdling banshee-screaming pitch, most of the blood curdling and banshee screaming originating from the readers. Today USAOKAY!!!!! tries a new tack by convincing those blithering morons (as they surely call them in Arlington) that Generation Y (I HATE TERMS LIKE THAT!) is erupting in a MASSIVE WAVE OF LIBERAL DEMOCRATIC REASON!!!!! Of course winning a Pulitzer prize in advance for its courageous disclosure of our EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL secret telephone surveillance it doesn't quite say that; it merely says the young want to "get involved." Otherwise the long-suffering peons might give the customer-service types a headache. Thank God for hermetically sealed luxury news suites! No one can ever penetrate THEM.
