Truthiness

Truthiness is a quality characterizing a "truth" that a person making an argument or assertion claims to know intuitively "from the gut" or because it "feels right" without regard to evidence, logic, intellectual examination, or facts.
American television comedian Stephen Colbert coined the word in this meaning as the subject of a segment called "The Wørd" during the pilot episode of his political satire program ''The Colbert Report'' on October 17, 2005. By using this as part of his routine, Colbert satirized the misuse of appeal to emotion and "gut feeling" as a rhetorical device in contemporaneous socio-political discourse. He particularly applied it to U.S. President George W. Bush's nomination of Harriet Miers to the Supreme Court and the decision to invade Iraq in 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】date=October 17, 2005 )〕 Colbert later ascribed truthiness to other institutions and organizations, including Wikipedia. Colbert has sometimes used a Dog Latin version of the term, "Veritasiness". For example, in Colbert's "Operation Iraqi Stephen: Going Commando" the word "Veritasiness" can be seen on the banner above the eagle on the operation's seal.
''Truthiness'', although a "stunt word", was named Word of the Year for 2005 by the American Dialect Society and for 2006 by Merriam-Webster.〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=June 4, 2006 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Merriam-Webster's Words of the Year 2006 )〕 Linguist and ''OED'' consultant Benjamin Zimmer〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】accessdate=June 4, 2006 )〕 pointed out that the word ''truthiness'' already had a history in literature and appears in the ''Oxford English Dictionary'' (''OED''), as a derivation of ''truthy'', and ''The Century Dictionary'', both of which indicate it as rare or dialectal, and to be defined more straightforwardly as "truthfulness, faithfulness".〔 Responding to claims, Colbert explained the origin of his word as, "Truthiness is a word I pulled right out of my keister ...".
==Adoption of the term by Colbert==
Colbert chose the word ''truthiness'' just moments before taping the premiere episode of ''The Colbert Report'' on October 17, 2005, after deciding that the originally scripted word – "truth" – was not absolutely ridiculous enough. "We're not talking about truth, we're talking about something that seems like truth – the truth we want to exist", he explained. He introduced his definition in the first segment of the episode, saying: "Now I'm sure some of the 'word police', the 'wordinistas' over at Webster's are gonna say, 'Hey, that's not a word'. Well, anybody who knows me knows I'm no fan of dictionaries or reference books. They're elitist.
Constantly telling us what is or isn't true. Or what did or didn't happen."〔
When asked in an out-of-character interview with ''The Onions A.V. Club for his views on "the 'truthiness' imbroglio that's tearing our country apart", Colbert elaborated on the critique he intended to convey with the word:〔
During an interview on December 8, 2006, with Charlie Rose,〔Charlie Rose (December 8, 2006), ("A conversation with comedian Stephen Colbert" ). Retrieved on August 14, 2008.〕 Colbert stated:
On his April 2, 2009 episode of the Colbert Report, Colbert added an addendum to the definition: a word so straight that it drives men wild.
