New York Times Repeats NBC Smear With Selective Edit of Zimmerman 911 Call

Today's front-page article in the New York Times on the Trayvon Martin case repeated NBC's attempt to cast George Zimmerman as a racist by selectively editing his 911 call.

Here is the 911 call transcript:

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.

911 DISPATCHER: Okay. And this guy, is he white, black, or Hispanic?

ZIMMERMAN: He looks black.

And here is what the Times reported:

“Hey, we’ve had some break-ins in my neighborhood,” Mr. Zimmerman said to start the conversation with the dispatcher. “And there’s a real suspicious guy.”

This guy seemed to be up to no good; like he was on drugs or something; in a gray hoodie. Asked to describe him further, he said, “He looks black.”

The Times, like NBC and MSNBC, leaves out the fact that it was the dispatcher, not Zimmerman, who first raised the issue of race.

This is jsut standard procedure for the Leftists.

It is only obvious because people are educated on the topic.

They use this same technique on every single thing they print.

Whitewash:Blackwash. They whitewash the left, and Blckwash the Right. They have been doing it for 40 years, every single day.

It was hilarious to watch them try to spin Zim as a “white-hispanic” after they found out that Zim wasn’t white as they had guessed he must have been from his German “whitey” sounding last name.

Ironically, their spin sounds racist and has an element of profiling. After all, only whites are murdering blacks. /sarc

Yup. Sounds like profiling to me by the NYT.

What a bunch of idiots.

They should just shut up. No, better yet. Keep writing. They continue to discredit themselves, and at this rate, they’ll be out of business soon.

It’s no accident. Keep reading the New York Times if you want to be propagandized.

These “journalists” are simply dishonest.

They’re running a relay race. One gets out, the next takes up the cause.
