#3 “There is no Izvestia in Pravda, and there is no truth in Izvestia.”

There is no news in Truth, and there is no truth in News, Truth and News being two of the major newspapers. My understanding is this was a cynical home-grown Soviet era joke and not Western propaganda. It shows a level of media distrust/understanding that we are just beginning to catch up with.

Would it be mean to point out that the country created by the communists no longer exists?
