Newspeak
A new age demands new words. You specialize in coining them. Hyphens do not exist in your world; you spread disinformation, deimportantize malefactors, create credibility gaps and declare coprosperity. When the need arises, you specialize in B-52ing buzzwords and positoning soundbites for media conspicuous consumption. Confusing? Not as confusing as can be once you get going! A Social trait-based Newspeak roll can excite or incite (Charisma + Newspeak); impress, intimidate or confuse (Manipulation + Newspeak) and even sucker skeptics by playing beauty and brains against them (Appearance + Newspeak). All hail neocom!
