In this case, it's more than that. Somebody tried to start a race riot. Probably for political purposes.
Recall that this story didn't make the national news until it was almost three weeks old! It happened...it was fully reported...and there was no outrage at the time!
Then, three weeks later, the story goes national. And, interestingly, the eyewitness report that saw Trayvon beating the crap out of Zimmerman, then went to call the cops was omitted from the story -- though it had been featured in every one of the local reports!
Somebody peddled this story to the MSM...instructed them to omit any mention of that one key interview...wanting to inflame the nation.
I would like to know who that person was...and who he/she was working for. I believe we can conclude that it had to be somebody with considerable influence -- or a representative of somebody with considerable influence -- because the entire MSM did as they were told. They even invented the "white Hispanic" dodge -- because, three weeks after the fact, they had to know Zimmerman's ethnicity.
There is some serious journalistic (and political) malpractice goiing on here -- and some one person is responsible.
Well, one of the ways they address the world is to gin up racial tensions. It helps them sell their silly rags.
