NBC told this blog today that it would investigate its handling of a piece on the “Today” show that ham-handedly abridged the conversation between George Zimmerman and a dispatcher in the moments before the death of Trayvon Martin. A statement from NBC:

“We have launched an internal investigation into the editorial process surrounding this particular story.”

Great news right there. As exposed by Fox News and media watchdog site NewsBusters, the “Today” segment took this approach to a key part of the dispatcher call:

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

Here’s how the actual conversation went down:

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.

Well I ain't first class
But I ain't white trash
I'm wild and a little crazy too
I have seen a lot of things in my life time.
That is why I walk the line I walk.

The media manipulators know full well what they are doing. Who exactly owns and controls the MSM? Answer that objectively and then you have your next question as to why they behave this way (if you don't already know..).

These people have a long established history of pitting various groups against each other for their own gain. This isn't just media business trying to get eyeballs for advertising profits as some people prefer to think or claim that it is, it is quite a bit deeper than that. This is about being the human top dog on the planet no matter what it takes or who gets hurt in the process.

Think about which nation on Earth is most infamous for creating false flag attacks to embroil others into war. That isn't just a nation, it is the people within and behind that nation, no matter where they reside. This is a well organized and deeply entrenched ethno-supremacist war that far too many people don't realize is going on for all the other distractions thrust upon them.

Canada recently forbid Foxnews from entering their media market ostensibly because "they lie", as I recall. Not that I am a Foxnews fan but it is somewhat ironic. You think anything at all will happen to NBC? Of course not. The people who control the legal establishment are friends & partners of the media establishment.

You won't get any justice against those that wantonly seek to create domestic violent strife for their own personal gain because the corruption is nearly all encompassing.

Anyone who though that any of these media outlets were anything close to being objective when it comes to reporting the news is fooling themselves. All of these reporters let their political leanings and agendas get in the way of being objective.

just another example of the F'd up way mainstream media is ran.

it amazes me that soo many want to string up Zimmerman without all the facts. and as more facts come out, it doesnt seem so clear cut.
