NBC aired an altered copy of a 911 call from Zimmerman. The alteration makes it look like Zimmermann had racist motivations.

NBC's altered version makes it sound like Zimmerman said:

Zimmerman: This guy looks like he's up to no good. He looks black.

But here is the full, unedited conversation that took place in the 911 call:
Zimmerman: This guy looks like he's up to no good. Or he's on drugs or something. It's raining and he's just walking around, looking about.
Dispatcher: OK, and this guy — is he black, white or Hispanic?
Zimmerman: He looks black.

Who is the more racially motivated here? Zimmerman or NBC?

I still think that Zimmerman was a damned fool for carrying a gun on a Neighborhood Watch tour. But the more facts that come out about what actually happened, the more this looks like a deliberate attempt by various news outlets, to smear Zimmerman as a racist murderer when in fact he was nothing of the kind.

How do these NBC people sleep at night after pulling something like this?

In ways I have not seen in my fifty six years on this earth, this case -- or as it should be properly put -- the out-of-context reaction to this case has been perhaps the single most racially divisive event of my lifetime. More than the O.J. Simpson verdict, more than the Rodney King case, more than any other incident I can call to memory.

The larger question for me this week is not so much the question of why, because I can easily see how reinforcing racial divides helps a political party, a sitting president, people who peddle hate...not very cleverly trying to disguise it as civil rights leadership, and even actors such as Sinbad and Spike Lee. No, the why of this matter seems easy to me. The larger question to me is, "how?"

George Zimmerman has nearly the same amount of Caucasian blood in him as President Obama does. This alone in the President's case is an argument against his "whiteness," yet in the majority of early reports (and now, to those who talk behind sandwich counters) the truth doesn't matter.

Zimmerman also has no history of racial animus towards black people. One of his longtime friends, a former anchor for CNN -- who happens to be African American -- has been confirming this across as many media outlets as is possible. Zimmerman and his wife -- it is now being discovered -- have been tutoring and mentoring at-risk African American youths for years, building into the lives of these at risk children virtues and principals to live by.

Zimmerman didn't target Martin because of race. As a community watch volunteer, and as a licensed concealed carry gun owner, Zimmerman had been concerned for some time about the amount of violent crime, break-ins, burglaries, and other felonies committed in his community. In recent months, skinny tall guys in hoodies had been terrorizing the homeowners in the area. Since the hoodie was pulled over his head, Zimmerman had no reasonable way to target merely an African American youth, but he did see a skinny tall kid that he did not recognize and felt if he saw something, he should say something.

According to 911 dispatch, Zimmerman was told that he did not need to follow Martin any further than he had. (Not, as some have reported, that he was actually instructed not to follow.) According to Zimmerman, the police report, and as many as six witnesses: Zimmerman -- after getting off the phone -- retreated from his shadowing of Martin and returned to his SUV. It is unclear as to why, but it is confirmed by multiple people who observed that Martin then turned and stalked Zimmerman. Just when Zimmerman had gotten back to his vehicle, it is reported by witnesses that Martin violently assaulted Zimmerman. And according to Robert Zimmerman, appearing on CNN on Thursday evening, Martin attempted to pull Zimmerman's gun. Quickly the tussle turned serious. Both men in a fight for control of the firearm, one of them was shot seconds later.

The police once on the scene asked neighbors what they had seen and heard. As many as six witnesses confirmed portions of Zimmerman's overall account. Even so, Zimmerman was handcuffed, given medical treatment to clean up his wounds, taken to the police station, questioned, and released because his account was according to those who did the early investigating consistent with the evidence.

Now a grand jury is looking into the matter, four different governmental levels of our nation's law enforcement are looking into it. Police reports are being leaked to the press, and when every final bit of CSI material is catalogued a report will be made.

Robert Zimmerman wished to communicate to the Martin family the grief and sorrow that they feel for them. There are no such wishes being communicated to the rest of America for the damage that continues to be done in the violence that is the refusal to admit truth. Those who do so would rather manipulate media and manufacture outrage all for political opportunity, vain publicity, or financial gain.

Trayvon was not shot because he was black, and not one shred of actual evidence gathered thus far changes that fact.
 
NBC, ABC, CBS, NPR, and CNN are the communications department of the Dem Party. Its too bad all Americans do not know this.

Its proven convenient for the black lobby who have been taking a beating for years now to have something to rally round. Its very convenient for the DNC to use to get lefies worked up as well particularly with the somewhat black president. And it is an absolute Godsend to give people something about the sorry state of the economy to think about.

ANY story they can sex up to keep people's minds off real life will be hyped as never before.
