George Zimmerman Sues NBC Over Edited 911 Tape

The PPSIMMONS original video of the unedited 9-11 call is below this article. That video was flagged by Youtube. A few days later PPSIMMONS was pulled "OFF THE AIR" by YouTube. Remember?  Of course we are back up and the video is back up as well. Interesting, huh?

In March, NewsBusters broke the story about NBC's Today show airing an edited audiotape of George Zimmerman's 911 call the day he shot Trayvon Martin in Florida.

On Thursday, the New York Post reported Zimmerman is suing the Peacock Network.

According to the Post, the complaint will be filed against NBC News President Steve Capus and correspondent Ron Allen who was the Today reporter involved in the March 27 broadcast.

A source told the Post, “The suit will be filed imminently against NBC and its news executives. The network’s legal department has put everybody in the news department involved with this incident on notice, telling them not to comment.”

As NewsBusters noted at the time, Today played an audiotape with Zimmerman saying on a 911 call, "This guy looks like he’s up to no good...he looks black."

But this was the fuller text of the call:

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, is this guy, is he white, black, or Hispanic?

ZIMMERMAN: He looks black.

NBC deceptively removed the question from the 911 dispatcher to make it appear Zimmerman was racist, a mistake the network ended up apologizing for.

THE ORIGINAL PPSIMMONS' VIDEO - ENTIRE 911 CALL UNEDITED
THIS IS THE VIDEO -that was flagged by YouTube and led to PPSIMMONS being pulled off Youtube for two weeks some months back! Many thought that even YouTube was involved in the "coverup" at the time.
