However, the WotYness of the word is not due to its newness (although it does not share a meaning with the 19th century word) nor to its beauty or wide-spread usage, neither of which it has, but to its summing up of political discourse in the year 2005. Per CNN it means the quality of stating concepts one wishes or believes to be true, rather than the facts.
