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.

In other excessive verbiage about pop culture, USAOKAY!!!!! fears in 1,580 WORDS (counting links but not counting the review) that people will hate Pirate Tentpole III because it's worse than the first two, to which we say, the second earned more than the first, and it doesn't matter anyway as the movie phreaks are DEAF, DUMB and, above all, BLIND. That a publicity broadsheet like USAOKAY!!!!! can admit to this shows just how much our culture stinks and how much the hacks are covering that inconvenient fact up.
