Fraudcast (fraud + broadcast); Fraudcasting; Fraudcaster

A “fraudcast” (fraud + broadcast) is whatever someone believes to be a fraudulent broadcast. For example, someone in the political left wing or right wing might find a broadcast from the opposite side of the political spectrum to be a “fraudcast.”
 
“Fraudcasting” was cited in 1923. The term was popularized in 1924, when New York City Mayor John Hylan broadcast his views on a city radio station, and some called it “fraudcasting.” 
 
“The Big Fraudcast” was cited in a 1932 newspaper.
 
“Fraudcaster” was published in a New York-based entertainment column by Walter Winchell in 1947.

The puns can be very good, even out of context: ‘‘Oblitopia,’’ ‘‘agnostications,’’ ‘‘sexcess,’’ ‘‘fidgetal computer,’’ ‘‘fraudcast,’’ ‘‘errorists,’’ ‘‘afrodizzyacts,’’ ‘‘revillusion’’ and, with sexism or countersexism in mind, ‘‘may the beast man wane,’’ ‘‘may the boast man whine.’’
