A tabloid puppet is a person who uses the mainstream media as their main source for information on political and entertainment matters. This person will believe almost anything, even the most ignorant rumors and slanderous lies, as long as its on TV or in a magazine, without any factual proof.
Tabloid puppets do not ever research and investigate the information that the media claims is true, which is usually half of the time fact mixed with rumor, false information, and random shit someone made off their head. Because of this, tabloid puppets can be very politically unaware and base their conclusions off of false affirmations. Tabloid puppets do not question what is said on their TVs or in the magazines, on the contrary, they spread the information to friends and colleagues.
Most tabloid puppets are educated through the brainwashing minds of CNN and FOX News and other various news networks. The more ignorant, gullible tabloid puppets usually watch shows such as "Entertainment Tonight", "Access Hollywood" and "TMZ". Don't get me started on magazines, those are even worse.
Unfortunately, the majority of the American public are tabloid puppets, and such make poor conclusions daily on politicians, celebrities, and other prominent figures shown in the mass media.

"Wow dude, you're such a tabloid puppet."
"I told my mom that the President was caught looking at this girl's ass, and she called me a tabloid puppet."

Get the Tabloid TV mug.A blog that analyses select stories mainly found in the Daily Mail and sometimes the Daily Express. The Sun and even the Daily Star. The writer will pick an article and pick it to pieces showing that is it not the paragon of journalism the newspaper claims it is but is in fact a load of scaremongering bollocks to keep people in a permanent state of 'fury'.

Get the tabloid smear mug.Juicy talks in mathematical circles on who are working on which projects or proofs, or who have been offered tenure, especially among the “office politicians” who were unprovenly promoted based on their close or intimate relationship with the boss rather than on their published papers and teaching awards.
Stabbing each other on the back, bitching about promoted or demoted fellow colleagues, and the like are part and parcel of tabloid math conversation, which preoccupies the minds of thousands of frustrated or marginalized mathematicians at lunchtime.
