I grew up in USSR in the 80s and there were two major newspapers distributed across the whole country: "The Truth" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pravda https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pravda) and "The News" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izvestia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Izvestia). So the joke about these newspapers was: There is no truth in "The Truth" and there are no news in "The News". Update: Added links to wikipedia
