Bifurcated Rivets had a link to these 8 rules of journalism which are mostly just republished from these 9 rules of journalism:

Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
