NBC launches internal probe over edited 911 call in Trayvon Martin shooting
NBC has launched an internal probe after running an edited version of the 911 call from George Zimmerman -- the man who shot and killed Trayvon Martin -- that made Zimmerman sound racist.
"We have launched an internal investigation into the editorial process surrounding this particular story," the network said in a statement to the Washington Post on Monday.
NBC's "Today" show ran the edited audio of George Zimmerman's phone call to a police dispatcher in which Zimmerman says: "'This guy looks like he's up to no good … he looks black."
But the audio recording in its entirety reveals that Zimmerman did not volunteer the information that Martin was black. Instead, Zimmerman was answering a question from a police dispatcher about the race of the "suspicious person" whom Zimmerman was speaking about.

NBC launches internal probe over intentional fraud of the facts
Once again the mainstream media has been caught red handed attempting to manufacture facts and manipulate public opinion on a racially charged incident. And once again they will get a pass. Nothing will come of this internal review and you can count on the fact that none of the other major media networks will pay more than passing interest in this report.
