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.

And on a subject that is dear to me, "civic pride", lately the clowns at CHEAP CHANNEL have not even done the minimum maintenance to their billboards in the poor neighborhood where I work, which got a little poorer when Obamamotors pulled the plug on a nearby Chrysler dealership. All that's left are the scarred remnants of several posters. I do not expect the minimum decency from the EXXONMOBIL OF RADIO, but don't those auto-dealing frauds realize they can be a negative force in their communities with their neglect? Or must the authorities remind them? I may e-mail our L&I.
