NBC News on Thursday corrected its report that federal agents had placed a wiretap on phone lines associated with President Trumps personal attorney, Michael Cohen.
The news outlet updated its initial report to reflect that Cohens phones were subject to a "pen register," which allows investigators to create a log of phone calls associated with Cohens number.
Its original story, which reported the wiretap, cited two separate sources with knowledge of the proceedings. However, three senior U.S. officials later disputed the report, prompting the correction.

FAKE NEWS
Wasnt a facebook app caught logging peoples cellphone call activity?
Actually, Id bet the original story was true. They realized it revealed illegality on the Mueller raiders part - oops - and are now trying to rewrite reality.
Think so.
Lying scumbags!
Sessions now knows who is leaking, because different suspects were told different things, and then they dutifully went out and told it to the Slimes.

Bingo! My thoughts, too.
The Supreme Court has recognized that by dialing a phone number, a person voluntarily shares that information with the phone company...”
Not really, since the electronic apparatus is not a sentient being. That is a distinction with a vast difference.
And, the first report was probably accurate.
That was my first thought as well.
Sessions now knows who is leaking
Would that make any difference? There were leaks made two years ago that Sessions ignores.
What are the names of the three senior U.S. officials who disputed the report?
How do they know what’s what?
I hate when that happens!
It’s a not wiretap wiretap of a barely lawyer. Who happens to be the President’s lawyer. All perfectly normal. For a banana republic.
Too bad Jeff Sessions died or I’m sure he would have done something about this abortion of constitutional rights by the FBI.
Maybe they forgot to get a warrant and need to walk it back. Or they exceeded the warrant. This could get really interesting. Where is Sessions???
These mediaFAKEpukes are EVIL!!!!!! Unfortunately the steeple and stock market cling on to every freakin lie that pukes out of their mouths!!! Folks should be pissed off!!
I’ll bet you’re right. They retract right after Rudy informed everyone what would happen if it were true. Not a coincidence.
Justice could be that those responsible for FAKE NEWS are eventually hanged by the neck until dead.
These attacks of Fake News are deliberate and with malice and forethought. Those involved in any way with this Criminal Enterprise should all be taken down on RICO, tried in court and taken to death row.
