My Interpretation...

Saw the facebook post this morning:

When look into these 2 lines (separately), actually it's pretty interesting...
(without looking into the dictionary or wiki to check out the deeper meaning of the words...)

She did not lie - so, what does that mean?
Well, I would interpret that the 'fact' remains as a 'fact'. It is in the absence of 'noise' - There is no additional information or tweaking to the existing information that would probably clouds one's interpretation. 

On the other hand, it may also mean there are information undisclosed. Without this 'undisclosed' information, this would mean the lack of info may lead one to make some assumptions, which could led to wrong assumptions. Hence, this leads to the next line, "But she did not tell the whole truth". But at least, what's made available would be 'facts'; however, an incomplete picture of the actual scenario. So, now, one might say one has lied because the lack of info leads one to make assumptions - the wrong lead could create a total wrong picture.

So, not giving a complete picture does not imply lying, isn't it?

Hahaha...
