wikiganda 

A portmanteau of Wikipedia and propaganda, wikiganda is what issues from the O’Sullivan’s Law-subsumed online encyclopedia that ostensibly "anyone can edit", but which in practice is a thought-policed lie-factory peddling establishment narratives.
"When a CNN or a FOX News bimbette reads some bullshit off her teleprompter, you don't buy it for a second, because yer smart, right? But when the same thing is written in Wikipedia with CNN or FOX as the 'reliable source', your dumb brain will eat it up with a spoon. And the garbage will sit there for years, waiting patiently like poison in an unlabeled container. That's the power of wikiganda."
