NBC doctors Zimmerman's 911 call to make him look racist. Internal investigation ensues.
I'm farily certain this gentleman is guilty as sin, but I just though i'd point out something which NBC (and others) have done which I don't feel is fair. This is straight out of the Fox News playbook, they just blatantly cut up the 9-11 call and moved around the words to make it sound like Zimmerman was saying "He's suspicious because he's black", which never occured at any point in the 9-11 call.
They edited the 9-11 call to make it sound racist, when the original call was not. There has been so much misinformation regarding this whole thing.

NBC video:
"This guy looks like he’s up to no good. He looks black."
Actual 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.
