Lies and disclaimers

Ross

I believe the answer is:

denials

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'disclaimers' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'lies and' is the wordplay.
'lies and' anagrams to 'DENIALS'.
But, I am not clear how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for denials that I've seen is " Rejections".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
