MEDIA MUTTERS: NBC News President on dishonestly edited George Zimmerman 911 call: Oops (sorta). Jim Treacher is not impressed: “Well, why let your audience in on it, Steve? Just because you deceptively edited 911 audio to make America’s latest Emmanuel Goldstein sound like a racist, that doesn’t mean you should apologize for your stunning ethical breach. Congratulations, you fired somebody. Who you won’t name. You took ‘disciplinary action.’ Which you won’t specify. You assure us that it won’t happen again. Without explaining how it happened in the first place. We’ll just take your word for it, since you’re so trustworthy.”
