They just played the video provided to them from the White Hut, from "Holder's People".

Source, please.

“After the dispatcher asked George if he was white, black or Hispanic, George said he wasn’t sure. He identified him as black when Trayvon turned around and was walking toward him to check him out.

We have to keep in mind it was raining and fairly dark out.”

It’s hard to tell in the dark, especially if the guy’s wearing a hoodie...

“It worked in the Rodney King beating (just showing King AFTER he attacked the cops).”

Thank you for bringing this up. I remember them constantly looping the worst moments of the beating segment completely out of context, ignoring all that preceded it.

Until they got what they wanted, a full blown race riot and double jeopardy for the cops involved. TWO really juicy stories to sensationalize!

Wonder how Reginald Denny is doing these days...

Maybe a little off topic here, but I somehow find it kinda ironic that the “hoodie” was invented by two Jewish Brothers and their father in 1919. They were however not named Zimmerman.
Company history:

Founded as Champion Knitwear in Rochester, New York in 1919 by brothers William and Abraham Feinbloom together with their father Simon Feinbloom. In October 2010 William and Abraham were inducted into the Rochester Business Hall of Fame.
Champion is the clothing company that invented the hoodie, sports bra, reversible t-shirts, and breathable mesh clothing (found in trucker hats).
Champion produced uniforms for National Basketball Association teams during the 1990s. It has also produced sportswear for many major colleges.

Didn't NBC also target Richard Jewell for destruction?


George Zimmerman may be the 21st century Richard Jewell....

Big Media (and, frankly "little" local media) is being EXTREMELY irresponsible covering this story!

R. Denny is pretty messed up these days. He will never fully recover. It's sad really, the hate that is allowed to pass, while you can use “Cracker”, Honkie, Whitie, or any swear word in the language, but can't use the “N” word without being charged with a hate crime.

NBC should lose their broadcasters license for an offense like this. This kind of malicious intent, will cause people to die.

NBC is fanning the flames of racial tension, no less.

“Some one arrest these people, but we are a nation of wusses with a government we wonder why we pay for Law Enforcement.”

Don’t go overboard, FRiend. South Carolina just arrested eight Holder thugs and charged them under the state’s anti-lynching law for beating up a white guy.

They each face up to 20 years in prison.

There may be “wusses” in your state, but in other states, we’re taking care of business to lock up Buckwheat’s clowns.

"Sean Hannity is a good guy, but not the brightest bulb in the bunch..he still shows pictures of Trayvon Martin at age 10"

Personally I question how good Hannity really is. When people started talking about the Trayvon thing, Hannity was on the bandwagon with the rest of them, condemning Zimmerman for not listening to the 911 operator (he wasn't legally obligated to do so), saying how bad it looked, etc. Then when things started to turn the other way, so did Hannity.

Hannity should listen to the ENTIRE 911 tape..when the 911 operator tells Zimmerman that he does not need to do that(Follow Martin) Zimmerman says “OK” no what happened after that we dont know but it sounds like Zimmerman was in fact listening to what the dispatcher had said and stopped following Martin. Last night on Hannity’s show he had Imus’s wife and she was already convicting Zimmerman, telling Sean “If he were your kid you would want justice.”

Richard Jewell v. NBC

This suit arose from comments made by Tom Brokaw on NBC Nightly News. Brokaw said, “The speculation is that the FBI is close to making the case. They probably have enough to arrest him right now, probably enough to prosecute him, but you always want to have enough to convict him as well. There are still some holes in this case.” NBC stood by their story, but later agreed to a reported settlement of $500,000 in December 1997. They issued a statement saying they agreed on the settlement to protect confidential sources.

******

After the government dropped Jewell’s name to the press, Jewell became the immediate target of fevered speculation. Hordes of journalists subjected his life to the unrelenting proctological examination that has become commonplace with the advent of cable news and its insatiable appetite for sensational stories.

As it turned out, the FBI eventually figured out that Jewell had done nothing wrong. But in the meantime, its act of naming him as a suspect in this notorious crime left his life and reputation in tatters.

Once exonerated, Jewell sued a bunch of his accusers and achieved some substantial settlements. NBC paid him more than $500,000 to settle a suit stemming from comments by news anchor Tom Brokaw that suggested that the FBI must have had significant evidence against Jewell, given that it had named him.

I saw that, too, and may I say I CANNOT STAND that woman.
That’s why I can barely stand to watch Hannity anymore....I know how liberals think. I don’t want/need to HEAR it.

This Is NBC’s Ron Allen, on the Upper West Side

NBC News reporter Ron Allen and his wife, CNN’s Adaora Udoji, have chased down major stories as foreign correspondents, but few assignments have proved as elusive as the search for the perfect New York apartment. After spending months searching, and trudging through nearly 100 showings, they’ve finally bought a 2,200-square-foot three-bedroom in a brand-new high-rise on the Upper West Side for a bit under $2 million. The catch? When they signed on, it hadn’t been built yet. But construction is finished, and the space is now ready for the tchotchkes and furniture they’ve collected from their various overseas assignments. (Both Allen and Udoji have done stints in the Middle East, covering the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.) “They’re thrilled,” says their agent, Rosemarie Bernard of Coldwell Banker Hunt Kennedy, who’s no doubt happy to be done with all those showings herself.
