outsourcing
Outsourcing used to mean using another company to do work for your own company that your own staff might otherwise have done on its own, but chose not to for one reason or another. Now, the media has used it so often where it should have used "offshoring" (outsourcing to a foreign entity) that the original meaning has been completely lost.
