Note
The -ing form of a verb that works two ways. Without an object it simply means making a sound, as when a crowd is heard noising in the street. With an object it carries news outward, so people are noising a rumor or a scandal. The final e of noise drops before -ing, and as a gerund it names the spreading itself: the noising of the affair did lasting damage.
