The unintended consequence could blow back to Fox because everyday they misrepresent the facts and edit tapes. NBC could use this as a defense and punch Fox in the face.
I say please proceed Zimmerman.
Bring back the fairness and truth in broadcasting doctrine.
And does anyone else have trouble looking at Zimmerman's face and feeling revulsion? I get sick now looking at the face of a cold blooded murder who is being praised by those in the white wing hate world. A 17 year old boy is dead and they praise the killer. The lost if humanity from these people are appalling.

Worked for the Obama campaign 2008 and 2012. Uncle is the minority leader of the NC state house. I have personally met Obama on multiple occasions my aunt worked as a staff lawyer for Bill Clinton the list goes on and on but you guys have already made up your mind.
Documented Obama donor face it you don't know me.
Just because I don't belive you view on an issue does not make me any less of who I am. The racism and challenges on my authenticity on DU is far worse than the usual casual talk with a business man that does not know me and assumes I went to UNC on an athletic scholarship. Just as offensive.

100. makes alot of diffrence
makes alot of difference.
lack of injuries and eye witness to say self defense is one major one.
why do you feel the need to tie this to the GZ case and not admit the facts are substantially different. I know i get it you think the jury was wrong in the GZ case but each case stands on its own merits. Travon for what ever reason assaulted GZ that went a long way towards GZ not guilty verdict. I wish the media would stop glossing over that point.

The fact that a jury kept your remark shocked me.

FOX is always editing stuff - hundreds of examples out there.
NBC will enjoy this one.
