Gotcha Journalism

a type of journalism that's used to draw people into revealing what they didn't want to initially release, leading to the "gotcha"/"aha!" moment when the info is released.
"This is gotcha journalism, but you know what? They're not gonna gotch me!"

GotchaJustice

Expression refers to investigators or adjudicators who claim to be scrupulously impartial but are ready, when necessary, to do the dirty work of squashing the rights of any individual who points the finger of blame in the "wrong" direction and questions the conduct of more powerful individuals within the established order.
Honest Tom knew what had happened was plain wrong even though it had been okayed at the very top. Yet, the official investigators didn't want to know. Then came the threat to zip it or else. Seems like Tom had his taste of GotchaJustice.

gotcha pole

A sign post, most of the time in New York City, that has an unusually high number of parking restriction signs on it so that any potential parkers must sit and read it thoroughly to determine whether it is legal to park there at that particular time. It is so named for the fact that it is relatively easy to miss a sign, and the officer who gives you a ticket can say "Gotcha!"
Man, I thought I was parked legally, but I must've missed reading one of the signs on that gotcha pole and now I just got a parking ticket.

Gotcha

An individual sport played mainly in basements and hotel banquet rooms. Men square off against each other naked. Points are scored by obtaining a firm grip on another player's meatsicle. Bonus points are awarded for special moves or handicaps. Some of these include the Tallahassee Trap Door or playing with lubed rubber gloves. Upon execution of a full fist grip, it is a custom to belittle your opponent by screaming GOTCHA!
I pissed blood for a week from the last Gotcha Tournament.
