Untruth (3)

Ross

I think it could be either:

lie

fib

'untruth' is the definition.
(lie is a kind of untruth)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for lie that I've seen before include "Story" , "found" , "Assume a horizontal position" , "Porky" , "Commit perjury" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Mirror, The Independent, the Universal, The Sun, The Wall Street Journal, the King Feature Syndicate, The Telegraph, the Evening Standard, The Times, the USA Today and The Star Tribune.
