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.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 4:
News isn't news when we don't report it.

Jo-NAH belches stupidly that this video has been "yanked from YouTube" when it is not only all over the place, but has its own MySpace page, no doubt financed by The One's permanent campaign -- and in no small part by SLIME. We confess to not having recognized most of the people here; but we've mentioned 1944 often enough to not do so further. The dorky music and dorky supposed celebs, not content to confirm yet another of Shaw's Maxims for Revolutionists, make quite clear in their own aw-shucks humble way that the next time a conservative does something EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVIL a few of their number may not seem so aw-shucks humble.
It is hard, however, to get that exercised thanks to THIS. PILLHEAD responds to the well-meaning sing-songy nursery-school Winston-Smith-being-brainwashed dorkery by reminding us what a shame it was he could not have entrusted some of his zillions to a fellow Palm Beach zillionaire.
P. S. Judging from the list we doubt if some of the celebs recognized some of the names either.
P. P. S. I know what PILL MEANS to say -- but that MAXIM applies even more to HIM.
