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.

Might as well repeat ourselves: We have our doubts The One's honeymoon is over. We've noted his easy charm and how millions of hacks continue to stick up for him. There are many reasons to be depressed by this presidency (some of which began under the incompetence that was Dubya). All this money headed into the incinerator, a nationalized GM, the socialism that dare not speak its name -- there are reasons to be more than a bit miffed. Perhaps we're sanguine because our time is like a drunken binge, and our bartender is the expert at how to make us feel good. The hangover will come soon enough.
