I base my position on nearly 20 years of editing video and audio. NBC&#8217;s Zimmerman edit was deliberate, done in a network editing studio at the specifications or orders of a producer who in turn answers up a chain of command that ends with the executive producer of the show that aired it. That show was the Today show, the highest-rated morning news show on the networks, and one of NBC&#8217;s prime products. Today aired the edited clip of George Zimmerman&#8217;s 911 call last week, and the network also put a text version, with the same dishonest edit, on its web sites. Only after this blog and others called NBC out did they &#8220;apologize,&#8221; while refusing to name anyone involved.]]>Fri, 06 Apr 2012 11:36:06 -0400<![CDATA[Bryan Preston]]>https://pjmedia.com/bryan-preston-1/2012/04/06/who-is-responsible-for-nbcs-zimmerman-edit-we-have-a-name-n163576
