As I recall, it has some news segments. Whatever they call it, though, I think they hold themselves out as having at least some standards for accuracy when reporting on the sorts of issues at play in the Zimmerman matter.

I don't doubt that for a minute.

There is no iceberg lurking under this story, no conspiracy to generate racial unrest. Those that believe NBC, as an organization, had nefarious reasons for altering that phone call should probably turn off Fox news and loosen the foil hat.
I don't see any left-versus-right angle to the unfortunate editing of the Zimmerman tape. It was either sloppy or an effort to add some pizzaz to their report, thereby pleasing the viewers. IMHO.
