The Media - NBC News Fires Editgate Producer
The media reports the news as it desires it to be.
It is wise to be very careful before reacting or forming an opinion based on their selective and often faulty reporting.
We are very fortunate that this "misleading story" did not lead to race riots...

John Sexton wrote this at Breitbart.com:
"It is likely that, if not for conservative new media, the misleading edit, which inflamed racial tensions in the Martin case, and which was repeated by Stetler's own New York Times, would have gone unnoticed and uncorrected. As it is, the producer responsible for the edit at Today has been fired, but the individual who made the same edit to the earlier MSNBC story (since corrected) has not been identified or disciplined. Nor has anyone at any other outlet or network -- many of which made similar selective editing choices -- been punished."
