A rumourmonger is someone who goes around telling — and the word is not a compliment. You use it when you : this person does not just hear a story; they feed it, pass it on, maybe even dress it up. Though actually, they may feel they are “just sharing”. Rumourmonger is your judgment, not theirs. You would not usually call a friend this to their face unless you were angry. It belongs more to writing, news, and sharp comments than to soft everyday chat. The second half, monger, is an old piece meaning a person who deals in a thing, the way a fishmonger deals in fish. Stuck onto , war, or scandal, monger turns sour: it says they trade in something ugly.
