نقل أخبار سارّة لتفادي الخوض في أمور جدية
This is a variant of "Good roads, fair weather" and I suspect it is a Scientology saying that means " only talking about or changing the conversation to subjects that are light and non controversial". It is a mechanism used to stop real conversation with other people.
Since this is a concept which is difficult to summarize in one or two words in Arabic, you will have to paraphrase it.
