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.

We doubt the Egyptian rioting will come to anything. Egypt is not Tunisia and it is billions in wasted U. S. aid. In the unlikely event the thug Mubaraks flee the country (as the damfool HENRY HONEST BRIGADE was ABSOLUTELY SURE they did), that could lead to an ISLAMIC REPUBLIC. And whether we like it or not ISLAMIC REPUBLICS seem to have NO existential crises, though their existence is empty in a different way.

The United States, a close ally of Egypt and major aid donor, called for restraint from all sides to avoid violence.

"Our assessment is that the Egyptian government is stable and is looking for ways to respond to the legitimate needs and interests of the Egyptian people," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told reporters in Washington.

Either HILLARY!'s winging it or she's being typically clueless, and we can't tell the difference.
