What is Newsable?
1.
A fail-ridden word made up by G4 TV so that they could appear "hip" when, in one of their advertisements, they mention its existence on slangdefine.
In this example, we examine the dynamic between two young women discussing G4 TV:
Young Woman 1: I saw an ad on G4 that mentioned the word 'newsable' on Urban Dictionary. I went online and there it was! They're so up to date on the things that our generation is into!
Young Woman 2: You watch G4?
Young Woman 2 Stabs Young Woman 1 to Death
As we can see, Young Woman 2 is clearly victorious in this exchange. She took exactly the correct path of action in dealing with Young Woman 1.
