I think many of us sort of feel the way she does. Murder might be a bit harsh though. But I do think he made a mistake or two which lead to TM's unnecessary death.
What that Miami NBC affiliate did to edit the tape to make GZ seem more racist was bad and I don't condone that but then again look at all the stuff more right ring news sources have done. The selection of the photos doesn't seem like a valid criticism. Would it be any better to use the ones of him flipping off the camera? What does it matter anyway if he flipped off the camera or if he had gold teeth or that he supposedly had the screen name "No_limit_nigga". I think those things matter more to racists and people looking to use racism to demonize him. He was under 18 too which makes it even more dicey to put up all the negative things.
Finally as far as bias press coverage goes I think it went both ways. I didn't see many media outlets discussing Zimmerman's arrests and there were a couple things not brought up often like the question of TM's potential right to stand his ground/self defense or some questionable elements in GZ's story such as the "you are going to die tonight" threat.
