Trump Slams NBC, Likens Network to 'Fake News CNN'

President Donald Trump opened Friday tweeting with an upper cut to the chin of NBC, saying that the "former home" to his "Apprentice" show is "now as bad as fake news CNN."

The tweet comes as a response to NBC's whirlwind reporting that Trump personal attorney Michael Cohen had been wiretapped by federal officials ahead of the raid on his homes and offices.

The only problem with that story - it wasn't true.

NBC later corrected its story, reporting instead that federal investigators had logged Cohen's phone lines but they had not listened in on his conversations.
