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.

This week in Zeitgeist, Norm Thomas's Grandson wants a new Truman. We all want a new Truman. Unfortunately Rude, Hayl -- er, Hillary, Mormon Mitt, the Comb, Boobs and Abe would have to get out of the kitchen first. And when the new Truman had a Mac would Norm's Grandson harp on his low opinion-poll ratings?

And in the international editions, "Slow is Beautiful." Certainly a bunch of highly-paid scribblers who spent half their lives around Mr. D.T.s of the Radio would qualify -- not for the beautiful part, I might add.

And that's another international double-issue. Slow indeed.
