After a monthslong internal investigation, The New York Times said there were serious falsehoods at the centre of its blockbuster "Caliphate" podcast hosted by Rukmini Callimachi, one of its star reporters.
The podcast's main figure, Shehroze Chaudhry, said he joined ISIS in Syria, killed two people and participated in other terrorist activities, and then returned to his home in Canada.
