New York Times stirs up racial hatred, too

And you thought it was just NBC that faked recordings and transcripts to fan racial hatred in the Zimmerman-Martin shooting.

From Breitbart:

After Breitbart.com pointed out yesterday that the New York Times had joined NBC and MSNBC in selectively editing George Zimmerman's 911 call to make him look like a racist, a reader emailed us to note that the misleading edit was even worse in some print editions of the newspaper. 
Here is the 911 call transcript:

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. And this guy, is he white, black, or Hispanic?
ZIMMERMAN: He looks black. 
And here is what the Times reported--online:

“Hey, we’ve had some break-ins in my neighborhood,” Mr. Zimmerman said to start the conversation with the dispatcher. “And there’s a real suspicious guy.”
This guy seemed to be up to no good; like he was on drugs or something; in a gray hoodie. Asked to describe him further, he said, “He looks black.” 
Now--here is what the Times reported in some print editions (emphasis added below, scanned image above):

“Hey, we’ve had some break-ins in my neighborhood,” Mr. Zimmerman said to start the conversation with the dispatcher. “And there’s a real suspicious guy.”
This guy seemed to be up to no good; like he was on drugs or something; in a gray hoodie; looked black. "Now he's just staring at me," he [Zimmerman] said. 
The selective edit in the print edition (not repeated, apparently, in all editions) is worse than the online edit, because it omitsany hint of a question from the dispatcher, suggesting that Zimmerman simply volunteered the information that Trayvon Martin "looked black." 
The Times has not yet issued a correction or apology.

Astonishing. Several pillars of the legacy media intentionally fanning racial hatred.

  1. It's Rodney King all over again. That was a lot of nonsense too but the media didn't stop until South Central Los Angeles was in ashes and a white man had had his face caved in with a brick by a mob of angry blacks.

    Good job media.

    TRISH
