infotainment 

A class of entertainment combined with journalism developed for 24-hour television news networks. Designed to instill emotional responses from viewers in between actual "interesting" news developments of national interest and importance.

Water-skiing squirrels, celebrity lawsuits, missing white-upper-middle-class-attractive children, or any other event that happens daily but is chosen (for one reason or another) to receive special attention from national news networks.

Introtainment 

1) The act of introtaining; thinking about something funny to yourself either to pass the time or to tune out a present situation, usually to the point of laughing or smiling to yourself.

2) The unintentional amusement provided by someone saying what's on their mind in a small, formal, public, gathering of strangers--like in line at the bank or in an elevator.

1) (In History class)

Phillip:

Dude, what are you laughing at? The teachers looking at you.

James:
Oh, what? Sorry, I was just thinking of this one episode of Steve Harvey Show when Levita goes to Ceddie, she goes...

Phillip:
Dude, just tell me later...

Teacher:

Shhhh!

2) (In line at the check cashing spot)

James:

Oh, so Levita goes to Ceddie she goes...

Phillip:
Dude, check it out...

Crazy Drunk Dude:

You know why we gotta stand in this long ass line on Labor day? Give me one reason why they only got one guy workin' up in here! I'll give you a reason, because they want black people to suffer, that's why!

Crazy Drunk Lady:
Shut up you! Whatever I give you you'd better duck it! Now HUSH!

Crazy Drunk Dude:

I feel sorry for your husband you old Bat...

James:

Now that's good introtainment.

Phillip:

Yomp.

infotainment 

When news is sensationalized in order to gain interest.

I get nothing out of the local morning news anymore. It has all become infotainment and impossible to get any solid facts on what's going on in the world.

Infotainment 

A poor excuse for large television networks to fill up on-air space: an attempt to sell people things that barely work, things that they dont need and things that are quite pointless in today's society.

Dodgey American acting and heaps of photoshopping appeals to the emotions of many stay at home parents, the elderly or teenagers with access to their parent's credit card.

It is sad to think a television station exists that plays repeats of hundreds of pathetic commercials, 24hours a day. WOW.

1) "Oh my gosh, I am sooo sick of seeing all of this Infotainment on TV; surely they have something better for their viewers to watch."

2) "LOL at the people who sit and watch this crap all day."

3) "Shaun, why are you sitting here watching Infotainment? Don't you have anything better to do with your life?!"

Innertainment, not to be mistaken for entertainment, is not only the act of performing but is the power driven behind a form of activity. This is the drive within the entertainers inner-self that creates entertainment. Entertainment holds the attention and interest of an audience or gives pleasure and delight but without innertainment or self motivation within one's self there is no entertainment, as lack of motivation kills the attention of others.
