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.

I have grown to so despise our superiors it flavors even the most innocent things with an overwhelming bile. Today quite a few dozens of happy young people favoring pot "legalization" marched down South Street. Not a one smoked it. I know why. One of NORML's lobbyists from Washington was no doubt there before hand (and probably not in a T-shirt) to yell, "DON'T -- SMOKE -- POT!" It would have given off an -- aroma. These Beltway cretins know the "stereotype" of Cheech and Chong is not far from the truth; painting pot smoking as a noble medical endeavor is a convenient way of burying it. Why this hasn't become another P-Ulitzer-winning cause celebre for the hacks is beyond me.

Hmmm, 1600 K St., NW. Yes, how expensive are YOUR clothes?
