IIRC, the party mouthpiece in the old Soviet Union was also called Pravda - "Truth."

...more conspicuous by its frequent absence these days. Leavitt seems to have taken to heart the critiques of the Catholic radtrad "worship police", who questioned why she was always wearing a plain, unadorned Protestant cross despite her (self-proclaimed) Catholic bona fides. She recently changed it to a somewhat understated crucifix, more properly in line with her professed faith.

LOL, it does appear that Leavitt's wearing a crucifix, after a year or so of wearing an unadorned Protestant-style cross; I call it the "conspicuous cross", as it's completely oversized when compared to former press secretary McEnany's much more understated cross. (Leavitt's also appears to be covered in diamonds). I've wondered for some time if Leavitt got any backtalk from the radtrad "worship police" at EWTN for wearing a Protestant-style cross despite her Catholic bona fides.
