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.

Today Hollywood Elsewhere and its environs are in a tizz because Oldsmobile Films' valedictory did less well than expected. We can only face disappointment to think with the Os-CAR®s the public is showing more discrimination toward movies (or AGAINST, as the case may be), and the CW has it that this masterwork was hurt by Oldsmobile employing the biz' traditional WE'D RATHER LOSE CUSTOMERS AND BE HOLY stratagem; nonetheless we wonder if the moguls are finally realizing there are only so many retards out there, and that even they aren't so easily assuaged.
