a definite or clear expression of something in speech or writing.
an·swer
ˈansər/
noun
a thing said, written, or done to deal with or as a reaction to a question, statement, or situation.
I would say what Comey said was exactly that, a "definite or clear expression of something in speech". it was pretty damn clear to me. not sure why you are focusing so headstrong on semantics, is what this boils down to.
Lets back up here, I made 1 single post about Comey inserting the phrase "directed at him" in his response to Schiffs question. I thought it was peculiar to add that phrase when 1. trumps tweet never claimed the "wire tapping" was directed at him 2. the same point it made without the phrase "directed at him" included (see below)
"With respect to the president's tweets about alleged wiretapping directed at him by
the prior administration, I have no information that supports those
tweets, and we have looked carefully inside the FBI,"
"With respect to the president's tweets about alleged wiretappingby the prior administration, I have no information that supports those tweets, and we have looked carefully inside the FBI,"
I thought is was pretty simple, then the usual suspects ran wild like Hulk-a-mania, tearing off their shirts and screaming profanities.
"Terrible! Just found out that Obama had my "wires tapped" in Trump Tower
just before the victory. Nothing found. This is McCarthyism!"
Those are Trump's words. His "wires tapped in Trump Tower." Pretty clear that he was in fact claiming the wiretapping was directed at him.
Not to mention:
Obama did it - no, the President can not order wiretaps
Nothing found - then why is Mueller allegedly threatening Manafort with indictments?
McCarthyigm - add this to the list of complicated things that tRump doesn't understand
All this man-splaining has made me hungry, Im thinking about indicting a "ham sandwich" I'm full up on alt-stupid, if only we could figure out how to power our automobiles on it, anyway "let me sleep" on my assertions and we'll catch up tomrw.
Yes, everyone is stupid but you. Keep thinking that. See if you can find some Jay Carney "truths" to validate your point.

Obvious to anyone except those with an agenda to, predictably, muddy up the waters.

not often I get to reference an article from Cracked.com, much less 2 days in a row - yet here we are
"There's this tone that implies they're smarter than everyone else, that they're dropping profound truth bombs that we're all too dumb or irrational to see. They talk about humanity like they're not part of it, like by saying "The fact that more people use Instagram than Wolfram is proof that #humanityisdoomed #notgettinglaid." They talk like they've evolved beyond us mere mortals and our petty problems, and they only grace us with their presence because they're stuck with us. They should be discussing impenetrably deep concepts with beings of pure light and Mark Twain's disembodied brain. Instead, fate has trapped them in Virginia.
Remember that kid at school who always bragged about how smart he was, but never did any work? They're that kid. They want to acknowledge the problem without doing anything about it, to appear intelligent without being intelligent, because they equate dispassionate cynicism with genius. But what they truly are, almost invariably, are people who are unaffected by whatever news story they're declaring to be proof that Rome has fallen. They are above everyone else, but only in the sense that after pronouncing our species doomed, they can head to Starbucks instead of having to deal with the floodwaters rising around them..."

Facebook to give Congress copies of 3,000 political ads bought through Russian accounts, reversing previous decision
By Washington Post Staff September 21 at 3:26 PM
The
company had previously shown some of the ads to Capitol Hill
investigators but took back copies before they could be studied
carefully, citing concerns over user privacy at the time. Facebook has
reversed that position amid rising complaints from Capitol Hill that the
company was not cooperating fully with its investigation.
Chief
Executive Mark Zuckerberg was to announce the decision on Facebook Live
at 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time, citing “an extensive legal and policy review”
that concluded that it was “vitally important” to cooperate fully with
Congress and that the company could do so in a way that didn’t endanger
user privacy, according to a blog post by Facebook General Counsel Colin
Stretch.
