Communication is shown to occur instantaneously over distance in model quantum demonstrations.

Maybe the dispute is over the definition of communication.

If a property is measured, and thereby the property of a linked particle is set, it doesn't provide a way to send information because nobody knew what the property was, and so had no control over the property that would be measured at the other particle.

In a way it's equivalent to saying that if the square-root of a number is picked at random, then the other complementary root will have the opposite sign. It's closer to a tautology than a form of communication.
