The Merriam-Webster Dictionary Has Been Trolling Trump On Twitter For Months : All Tech Considered Merriam-Webster's Twitter account weighs in on trending words and phrases and has waded into linguistic matters in politics, including a big campaign question: Did Donald Trump say "bigly" or "big league"? Marian Carrasquero/NPR hide caption toggle caption Marian Carrasquero/NPR Merriam-Webster's Twitter account weighs in on trending words and phrases and has waded into linguistic matters in politics, including a big campaign question: Did Donald Trump say "bigly" or "big league"? Merriam-Webster has a message for the Trump administration: There is no such thing as an "alternative fact." That memo was at least implied this week when the dictionary publisher tweeted the definition of a fact just hours after Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway appeared on Meet The Press and referred to statements by White House press secretary Sean Spicer about the inaugural crowd size as "alternative facts." These types of tweets are nothing new for Merriam-Webster.
