Breitbarticle

An article/report/story in the news that has little to no basis in fact and/or was clearly written with the intent to push some sort of political agenda i.e., fake news. Typically found online on fringe, far-right websites and presented as though it is legitimate journalism, most commonly covering topics like politics, race relations, climate change, etc.

Person 1: I just read a story online about a child sex ring run by Hillary Clinton in the basement of some pizza parlor...how crazy is that??

Person 2: Oh yeah? Well I just read a report that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are having a secret love affair...it's true!!

Person 3: Oh my god, those are both ridiculous breitbarticles, just stop. Here, let's put our phones down and go outside...

Brainfart 

n. A massive, horrible release of stupid that is often offensive to the senses and may create a social faux pa in some settings. Brainfarts often result in an intense feeling of embarrassment and shame compounded by an inability to explain what the hell just happened.

I was supposed to call Roy Blount, Jr. for an interview at 10 a.m. PST, but I had a brainfart, forgot how to tell time, and managed to call him at 6:00 a.m. PST. I feel like an idiot.

breitbart

verb: To deliberately slander individuals or organizations though the use of selectively edited video released to the news media. Genesis: Andrew Breitbart used selectively edited video to slander the organization ACORN and Shirley Sherrod in the mainstream press. Once both of the full tapes were viewed, the allegations were proven false. The frequency of this technique shows an intent to deceive and a pattern in Mr. Breitbart's behavior.

Fox News destroyed the reputations of Shirley Sherrod and ACORN. Who will they breitbart next?
