>> Plausible but false or insincere; specious: made a meretricious argument. <<

That is a strange explanation. “Meretricious” has its base in “Merit.” In normal parlance, “meretricious” boils down to “having merit.”

Most peculiar.

Of or relating to prostitutes or prostitution: meretricious relationships.

You just described every reporterette on television.

The Democrat debate was a meritricious display of freebies offered the lofos by the candidates. The Republican debate was a meritricious display of bias towards the candidates by the “moderators”.

Are these kids Chinese? The calligraphy does not look Korean (and neither do the faces) and there are very few Christians in Japan. They are adorable, no matter where they are from. Their performance is not meritricious — it truly has high merit.
