Fresh embarrassment for NBC as embattled network has to correct itself on Cohen wiretap story

For NBC News, it was another in a series of embarrassments on Thursday as it had to correct a story saying federal investigators had placed a wiretap on the phone lines of President Donald Trump’s attorney Michael Cohen.

As Fox News is reporting, the feds were monitoring only what calls were being made but weren’t listening in — contrary to NBC’s earlier reporting. The Peaxxxx Network’s major turnabout was made more than four hours after the original story moved online Thursday, when it caused immediate chatter in the cable news universe.

It is not fake news, it was incorrect news. There is a big difference. The basis of the story, that the feds were monitoring Cohen's calls is accurate. They were collecting metadata and not listening in.

At least NBC has the ethics to correct itself. That is much more than Trump would ever do. He would just double down and start lying about what he had said.

No big deal, honest error in an ever developing and changing story. :popcorn:

But it would be nice to have Mike the Snitch Cohen on audio, not that that'll really need it because the paper trail alone Mueller and Avenatti have compiled on Trump and Cohen staggers the imagination
