journo-tisement

Corperate press release masquerading as journalism, usually found on the internet. May include such media as 'articles' or viral videos etc.

A: 'Hey, there's an article on Yahoo about the McRib being brought back. First time since 1994, it says.'

B: 'Jesus, dude, you're such a sucker! Don't you get it? It's just an ad, pretending to be journalism! That's a classic journo-tisement, right there.'

A: 'My God! You're right. Those bastards!'
