Uh, no. He didn’t coin that word.
Merriam-Webster dictionary defines it as:
“ Definition of ditto (Entry 1 of 4)
1 : a thing mentioned previously or above —used to avoid repeating a word —often symbolized by inverted commas or apostrophes”
I think what you’re referring to is the term ”ditto head”, which is a derogatory name applied to lovers of Rush Limbaugh.
He encourages callers to his show to be brief and say “ditto” if all they want to do is agree with him or the previous caller.
I guess his followers have embraced that name as a badge of honor.
Thats what you think.
