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.

THE NEWS HACK'S CREED, No. 4:
News isn't news when we don't report it.

With his long history of pleasing his bosses B. S. DEFENDER is EXCEPTIONALLY well qualified to lead a program of ENTREPRENURIAL JERNALISM.
How 'bout KEN FELATTA and LOU DOBBS as PERFESSERS? At the very least there should be an ALAN ABELSON CHAIR for DISTINGUISHED BUSINESS BS. And maybe ROGER EBERT and DICK CORLISS could teach classes in SHOW-BIZ ENTREPRENEURIALISM?
And the FOUNDING DEAN STEPHEN SHEPARD edited BizWeek. Was that in the days it proclaimed THE DONALD worth $500 megazillions? Or when JOHN BYRNE first spoke the holy name of his future boss LEGENDARY WELCH? ENTREPRENEURIAL!
ALL THAT DAVOS SCHMOOZING PAID OFF!
