NBC selectively edited 911 Trayvon Martin tape

Apparently parts of the 911 tape George Zimmerman made to local police didn't fit their narrative on race.

No big deal...they can just edit it, as the Hollywood Reporter tells us.
In the NBC segment, Zimmerman says: "This guy looks like he's up to no good. He looks black." The full version, though, unfolds like this:
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 operator: "Okay. And this guy, is he white black or Hispanic?"
Zimmerman: "He looks black."
After playing both versions, Hannity said: "They forgot the dispatcher's question! How could NBC, in good conscience, do that?"
NBC is investigating.

Hat tip to the American Thinker.
