NBC News on Thursday corrected its bombshell report that claimed federal authorities wiretapped phone lines belonging to President Trump’s longtime lawyer Michael Cohen.

Citing three senior U.S. officials, the corrected report from NBC News instead claims Cohen’s phones were being monitored using a device called a pen register, which records numbers called from a certain phone line and the duration of calls. But that device doesn’t listen into the calls.
