Not a neologism but a contradiction in terms.
Something based on consensus and not on facts cannot possibly be defined by the word truth. This runs counter to the meaning of the word truth.

Therefore the correct word is truthiness, the perceived truth. Word of the year 2006

No. In fact, it doesn't make much sense at all. Why would it? It is probably just a lame comic relief-type website.
