A new portmanteau word

So, when I referred to Ah-nold's speech at the Republican Convention as "politainment," did I create a new word? And, more importantly, how do I maintain credit for it? :-)

Well, first you google it.
There you see that, unfortunately, someone has already submitted it. (Click here for instance)

Still, if you can come up with a scathing, book-length indictment of the media's insidious role in America's poltical system in the next few weeks, you might be able to use it without having to pay royalties to Mr. Christopher Treacy.

(But Bill O'Reilly will probably still sue you)
