The truth is the truth (Vanity)

During the Cold War, the USSR and the USA competed in every way.

A secret road race was held with the only two entrants; the USSR and the USA. The USA car won handily.

The official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, Pravda, (which means truth), had the following headline the next morning:

"USSR finishes second, USA is next to last."

Today, that would be the CNN headline.
