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.

All right, may as well level with my two readers; our nation won't stand or fall if this community center goes up, or fails to. And any religious society can build any temple where it pleases (abiding by zoning and traffic regulations of course). But this masterstroke was a statement. And tolerance is a slandered word because those most apt to use it are those least likely to have it. The recent adventures of the fightin' JOURNOLISTER and the righteous state rep tell us that much. Unless you're willing to give equal rights to conservatives as to Muslims -- and judging from Prof. Mark's address I'd say he has high blood pressure too -- then SHUT UP.
