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.

Among Mueller's investors were former Janus Fund manager Blaine Rollins, who worked for Mueller Capital Management as director of research. Rollins' attorney has said he had no knowledge of the alleged Ponzi scheme.
Another investor was R. Scot Sellers, chief executive of Centennial-based Archstone, a real estate investment trust. Sellers earned $19.6 million in 2006, Forbes reported.
James Burke and Stephen Creamer, executives with Denver-based High Sierra Energy LP, invested with Mueller, according to Dow Jones Newswires.
Other investors were car-dealership owners and executives from the automotive- sales industry, including Todd Maul of Broomfield, a former AutoNation executive; and Edward Calus of Cherry Hills Village, who sold Elway a Nissan dealership in 1997.
Any wonder the stock market's daydreaming? Any wonder the foreclosure business is such a mess?
