Sensation: Cities Found on the Moon!

We still come across publications trying to find an answer to the following question: Are we alone in the universe? At the same time, the presence of reasoning beings has been detected close to our home, on the Moon. However, this discovery was immediately classified as secret, as it is so incredible that it even might shake the already existing social principles, reports Russia's newspaper Vecherny Volgograd.

-- Pravda


Pravda means "Truth" in Russian but its readers have always known this to be a bit of a euphemism. Still, its interesting to watch this former propaganda organ of Soviet Union transform itself into a tabloid. In retrospect this seems like such an obvious move, I guess its only a matter of time before it gets snapped up by the likes of Rupert Murdoch or perhaps even Mark Day.
