Gossip

Gossip refers to both the act of spreading news, especially rumours or private information, or the news spread through the act of gossiping. While this is one of the oldest and (still) the most common means of spreading and sharing information, it is also notorious for the introduction of errors and other variations into the information thus transmitted. The term also carries implications that the news so transmitted is of, usually, a personal and/or trivial nature.
