Hi, Pippin. I agree with you that Harry has lied to Hermione, but I 
think the working phrase in Paul's statement was "to her face". Yes, 
Harry has lied to Hermione, but he has never lied to her face in the 
sense that, as the books have described, he has never been able to 
look at her when he's lying to her. This is in contrast to Ron, to 
whom Harry has lied without apparent guilt.
