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.

Pragmatism is another word reduced to rubble, like compromise. Both have come to mean giving in to your opponents. It's an apt term for someone like Ike, whose stone silence to the Hungarians (to give one example) was the perfect pragmatic statement -- and it condemned a generation of East Europeans to Communism. Yes, there was probably nothing he could do about it, but Ike did nothing about it almost proudly.

TRANSLATION: Gerald Ford Republicans still live. So what?
