"Never let the truth get in the way of a good story" -> nghĩa là đừng bao giờ để sự thật chen ngang vào một câu chuyện hay; lời nói dối không hại ai.

Ví dụ
They loved the idea that like any entertainment (giải trí) creation based on a real story will always get something either a little wrong, or stretch the truth. Scott has always told me our whole life writing together, he says, 'Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.'

The art of the deal is also the art of the pitch. As Mark Twain said, “Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.” I suspect Ms. Elizabeth Holmes may have taken one of Twain’s classes.

Like the old expression, “never let the truth get in the way of a good story.” For instance, in Kingdom of Fear (2003), everything, in my opinion, was just bullshit (vớ vẩn). They’re all his biographical (tiểu sử) stories and he was called out by the New York Times Book Review in that he had the opportunity to really get into the important stuff for the first time, but he didn’t do it. 

There’s an old cliché in journalism that says to never let the truth get in the way of a good story. Brian Williams did, and lost his $10 million a year job as anchor (mỏ neo) of the “NBC Nightly News” in 2015 because of it.
