In a surprising display of “journalism,” Erik Wemple of The Washington Post (NBC to do ‘internal investigation’)  notes that the once venerable NBC News is intellectually corrupt. Of course, it has not been venerable since it planted bombs in Ford Pintos to ‘enhance’ its story about the car’s vulnerability when rear-ended. (Much like being a freshman in prison, one supposes.) Oh hell, NBC lost its luster long before that episode.

But, in this case, it’s truly despicable and inexcusable to have edited 911 call transcripts to smear George Zimmerman as a racist. He’s not a sympathetic character, but between NBC and its star journalists, including “The Reverend” Al Sharpton, Zimmerman may end up a FoxNews analyst . . .
