George Zimmerman, the man who shot Trayvon Martin earlier this year in a case that drew huge amounts of publicity, plans to sue NBC News and a number of its executives over the editing of a 911 tape, according to The New York Post. In the edited version of the tape that was played on “Today,” Zimmerman was heard telling the operator that Martin was black without any prompting. In the unedited recording it’s apparent he only did so after he was asked about the teen’s ethnicity by the 911 operator. At least three NBC News employees were let go after an investigation of the tape's editing.
