The real saying is "Pravda nye Izvestia, E Izvestia nye Pravda", at least
to the best of my abilities without cyrillic letters.  Translated to English
in an uderstandable form it means "What's in Pravda isn't the truth, and
what's in Izvestia isn't the news"  This is funny because Pravda means truth
and Izvestia means news.  I used "nye" instead of "nyet" because nyet means
no, and nye is the negation.
