The answer is false

Explanation:

Oral communication is also a two-way communication, because communication in whatever form cannot be termed communication if there is no sender and receiver of information being communicated.

Hence, there is always a way out for feedback after the message has been passed. For instance, a telephone conversation is an oral means of communication, that provides an opportunity for the receiver to also express his or her opinion by a way of giving feedback either immediately or by returning the call later on.
