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.

ANNOYING: CONrad the Prison Historian echoes the con-SER-va-tive buncombe that (to reduce it to its irreducible minimum) THE RICH SHOULD PAY NO TAXES. Look, we know ST. WARREN is at best a sanctimonious two-timer, and when He opens His obscenely wealthy mouth to say He should pay more taxes it is faintly self-serving, but how did the rich ever get to be sacrosanct with you tub thumpers? Please, con-SER-va-tives, if you want their money just ASK for it. Stop begging for it through toadying punditry.

And YOU especially CONnie should shut up because you're not exactly poor yourself.
