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.

Of course the idiot GEKKO "GRASSO" KUDLOW had to choose TODAY to say we're in AN AGE OF PERMANENT PROSPERITY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! again, presumably after this latest outbreak of smallpox with guns; combined with such calamities, he makes us wonder why God puts up with us.
Incidentally, we still remember the MASSACRE RALLY, when the idiot GEKKO and his friends idiotically sent stocks into TulipLand before the non-bust in the housing biz and the non-problem with the credit markets mysteriously brought them down, which makes us wonder what sort of a man GEKKO would be if he didn't have MONEY.
