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.

Thanks to DA POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we learned of a site "that has arguably supplanted Rolling Stone and Blender as the go-to place to learn about new music" -- and it's so "cool" it stiffed the BUGMEISTER. (That would seem an uncool idea if it wants to reap BILLIONS.) Having studiously scanned the site we can say it would take weeks to know all the obscure names there, and we doubt we could ever link them to all the bubbling-over musical masterworks they've no doubt produced. Here is the enigma of the Web: you can be famous and yet, for all practical purposes, obscure at the same time. And anyone who's famous to only an in-crowd may not be famous.

Then again RUPERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or SUMNER will probably buy out the site soon for $20 BILLION, and reinforce their fame for stupidity.
