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.

Mark Steyn can be a wonderful writer. Think his ruminations on pop songs and musicals. And then he remembers he has to bow to PILLHEAD, and with his brain on automatic pilot he does write-by-numbers stuff that in so many words exonerates SLIME because nobody lost a job in the Atlanta skools. This by our reckoning is the FIRST TIME Jo-NAHdom or any other prominent con-SER-va-tive site has even MENTIONED News of the World, and now we see the soft underbelly of a con-SER-va-tive movement excusing its own favorites by denigrating its enemies.

And since Mark MUST slobber over PILLHEAD let us ponder the question: What if a SLIME came along and fired the entire Atlanta skool sistem, innocents and all? Who would replace it? And who'd bet who'd replace it would be no better than what got replaced? Precisely why people are suspicious over SLIME's motives with THE SUN.

SHUT UP, MARK, and stick to pop songs and musicals.
