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.

Meantime the idiot hacks have been so absorbed in plugging a movie they've completely forgotten Burma/Myanmar, the greatest example of governmental malice since Democratic Kampuchea. Part of this is, of course, that after a while disasters are boring; and when you consider numbers in the hundreds of thousands the compassion blanks out. But the JUNTA deserves a special place in HELL for what it has done, and the WORRULLD COMMUNITY stands shoulder to shoulder in memory with Neville Chamberlain for using its supposed helplessness as an excuse for shirking its responsibility.

While he said he could not make specific policy predictions for the next administration, Gates told the annual Shangri-la conference on international security [!] that there will be "no change in our drive to temper North Korea's ambitions, a policy not possible without China's valued cooperation."

It is long past the time for Dubya to do what Gen. MacArthur's old soldier does, and just -- fade away.
