There is a major typo!!!! Someone should check that out.
It should read "apologist." Yes, it has bothered me, too.
Is it thread-worthy? I can't see how it is.

Yes I agree with you. I was just seeing who is awake.
The typo was extremely obvious.
I didn't see anything about apologetics but it was truthiness. It isn't a word.

Stephen Colbert announces that "The Wørd" of the night is truthiness, during the premiere episode of The Colbert Report.

Truthiness is a satirical term that U.S. television comedian Stephen Colbert created in 2005 to describe things that a person claims to know intuitively or "from the gut" without regard to evidence, logic, intellectual examination, or facts.[1] Colbert popularized this definition of the word during the inaugural (pilot) episode (October 17, 2005) of his satirical television program The Colbert Report, as the subject of a segment called "The Wørd". It was named Word of the Year for 2005 by the American Dialect Society and for 2006 by Merriam-Webster.[2][3]
By using the term as part of his routine, Colbert sought to satirize the use of appeal to emotion and the "gut feeling" as a rhetorical device in contemporary socio-political discourse.[4] 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.[5] Colbert later ascribed truthiness to other institutions and organizations, such as Wikipedia.[6]
