Displaying header dependent on page in php

I have no idea why this is not working 

<?php $title = the_title(); ?>

<h1 class="top-entry-title">

  <?php if( $title === "News" ): ?>

     <?php the_title(); ?>

   <?php endif; ?></h1>

it just shows the title for every page even if it isn't equal to news ?

You can use this:

<?php the_title( '<h1>', '</h1>' ); ?>

This would print the title to the screen as an h1.

There's no echo in your code (and it's way too complicated, I think):

<?php
    if( $title === "News" )
        echo "News";
?>

should do the job.

The problem is in the top. 

$title = the_title();

will print the title. See also the Wordpress Codex.
