"Truthiness" has been selected as the 2005 Word of the Year by the American Dialect Society. The word was made famous by Stephen Colbert, and applies to Dan Rather and his ilk, and the hundreds of newspapers headlining "Miners Live".
Truthiness is "stating concepts and facts one wishes or believes to be true, rather than concepts or facts known to be true."
In the good ole days, we commonly used "them lying newspapers" which means the same as truthiness.
