What is interpretation? What is spin? What is framing? There is such a thing as an incorrect interpretation. Calling my flooded basement a "global crisis" is simply wrong. If I know it isn't a global crisis and yet continue to claim it is, then I am indeed lying.
Spin involves deliberately misleading people in a way that suits your ends which is also characteristic of lying, or at the very least, it characteristic indifference to the truth (bullshitting) and concern for producing a certain desired result. Whether this qualifies under a strict definition of lying or not, it is nonetheless in the same general vicinity. Both involve the abuse of language by using it as an instrument of power wielded over another.
