To clarify, it was Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla who invented the word while they were working on the Kevin & Bean morning show on KROQ.

1. A combination of the words "jackass" and "asshole". Often used on the radio, because the FCC lets it through. Assumed to have the same impact as "fucktard" or similar words.
2. Jackhole Industries -- the production company of Daniel Kellison, Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla. They produced shows such as "The Man Show" and "Crank Yankers."

Portmanteau of "Jackass" and "Asshole".
Originated as a name by radio personalities Kevin and Bean (from KROQ-FM in Los Angeles) as a way of calling somebody a nasty name without actually breaking FCC edicts against foul language.

1. Lucky-UTV is accepting all kinds of tv show submissions for their new channel, but they usually only allow content about jackholes because the company was built from ideas spawned from dealing with jackasses and assholes.
