As self proclaimed "journalist" John Broder is now the butt of a hundred geek jokes, his name will become immortalized along with OJ, Christophe Rocancourt, Jayson Blair, Charles Ponzi, Milli Vanilli, Frank Abagnale, etc. Driving around in circles waiting for your car to run out of fuel is the classic Broderism. Lying about your average driving speed is a Brodersim. Forgetting to fully charge your battery - yep, Bodericious. The Times flimsy attempt to defend Broder is itself now a classic Brodersim - in that even the once venerable New York Times could not bring themselves to admit the truth and dumb the fraudster.
