Coalgate, porn gate and now chitgate. What is it with so many gates?
After some search and our friend wiki I found that the gate reference started with president Nixon of USA because of a building called Watergate and of course Nixon's involvement. Dear Indian media, I did not understand the reference atleast not till now, and I am an average Indian. Put me in a sorted array of intellectuals and I would be somewhere near the average. Imagine how many people would be to my left. Also imagine that these many people might not be able to connect with gates other than of course, our Bill.
Throw out the -gate word. Find something more appropriate. Search for a good word, a suffix that can go along with all corrupt scams by choosing one of unheard proportion and attaching a related word. Or something smarter, people to the right of the array of intellectuals need to work on this, so that people on left can understand.
oh, by the way, I find it appropriate to mention the word colgate here and I hope they can use these -gate suffixes to their advantage in some cool ad.
