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.

There seems to be a disease in southern California. We saw it first in Bell; it also infected a town called Vernon. God knows how many little kings earn vast sums taking advantage of government neglect and the voters' sloth. Yes, here is justification for that old catch phrase, "Throw the bums out!"

And here, for once, is a newspaper performing a public service, the sort of thing USAOKAY!!!!! should think of whenever it runs another BIGMEDIA ad, or whenever Mogul's Friend again looks for work.
