Not if you ask the kids I teach! Failing to tell me big or bad news isn't lying its just not telling me.

As with most things, depends on the context and intent.

Deliberately omitting details is technically an obstruction of truth. how bad depends on the importance of the omitted details i guess.

P.O. Box DE1 0NQ

Jeremy Paxman to Michael Howard

"Did you threaten to overrule him [Lewis]?" – a total of twelve times in succession (14 of the first two inquiries worded somewhat differently and some time before the succession of 12 are included). Howard did not give a direct answer, instead repeatedly saying that he "did not overrule him", and ignoring the "threaten" part of the question

"Is omission a lie?"

If I don't say "I do not like your feet" is that a lie?

btw I have nothing against your feet...just using them as an example to answer your question!

So technically, no.

If the intention of the omission is to mislead then I would say morally its a lie

Totally agree. I have worked in sales and omitting things can be classed as misselling as the customer can be left with the wrong impression of something.

Omission isn't lying but it is deceitful. Hence why, in court, the oath is worded as promising to tell the WHOLE truth.
