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.

We did not take as great umbrage at G000,000,000GLEBLOGGER's meltdown as others because eight years have taught us to be wary of its technology and disdainful of its nonexistent customer service, and what with JIM CRAMERS!!!!! afoot this probably won't hurt its still-inflated stock price, but now a lot of people who didn't know this combo in its early incompetent days know its incompetence anew, although a few may try to switch blogging providers, as if; nor will this hurt the imbecilic CLOUD COMPUTING daydream even though this was a worse takedown than Amazon.com's, and should have taught people for ALL TIME you CANNOT trust TECHNODWEEBS with your bytes. Indeed if this massive zap discourages a few people from blogging so much the better. It did show, however, how much at the mercy we are of BILLS and STEVES and LARRYS and others with their vast omnipotence, but the mouse for these elephants is it only takes one little piece of bad code to bring their inflated reps down.
