What she posted was factually true.

"True but inaccurate" - It's called disinformation, a propaganda technique of presenting informantion, not technically inacurate, in such a manner to create a misleading impression. Much employed by agents of the Left.

The advantage is that when the actual dodgy claim is questioned, the Moonbats and Anndroids can pretend to the high moral ground.

To: Oztrich Boy

You are confused (to put it nicely).

Disinformation is false information. (Like what you just posted.)

Disinformation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Disinformation, in the context of espionage, military intelligence, and propaganda, is the spreading of deliberately false information to mislead an enemy as to one's position or course of action. It also includes the distortion of true information in such a way as to render it useless.

What Coulter said was absolutely true.

Don't be confused by the trolls. Learn to read.
