US, New York - NBC News has fired a producer for editing a recording of George Zimmerman's call to police the night he shot Trayvon Martin, a person with direct knowledge of the matter said Saturday.

The identity of the producer was not disclosed. The dismissal followed an internal investigation that led to NBC apologizing for having aired the misleading audio.

The person with knowledge of the firing spoke on the condition of anonymity. An NBC spokeswoman declined to comment.

NBC's Today show first aired the edited version of Zimmerman's call on March 27. The recording that viewers heard was trimmed to suggest that Zimmerman volunteered to police, with no prompting, that Martin was black: "This guy looks like he's up to no good. He looks black."

But the portion of the tape that was deleted had the 911 dispatcher asking Zimmerman if the person who had raised his suspicion was "black, white or Hispanic," to which Zimmerman responded, "He looks black."

Later that night of Feb. 26, the 17-year-old Martin was fatally shot by Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer in Sanford, Fla. Though Martin was unarmed, Zimmerman told police he fired in self-defense after Martin attacked him.

Questions subsequently have arisen over whether Zimmerman was racially profiling the teen, a theory the edited version of the tape seemed to support.

On Tuesday, NBC said its investigation turned up "an error made in the production process that we deeply regret." It promised that "necessary steps" would be taken "to prevent this from happening in the future" and apologized to viewers.

So we're supposed to just take their word that someone was fired? It's not like they've lied before, right? LOL

He probably just had to take a refresher course on how to lie to the public without getting caught.

He was probably fired and then promoted to a more important job. "Good job! You're up with the big boys now."

That could help a lot on defense costs.

Actually that's not a bad idea.

The fact that he was fired admits guilt the.tapes where doctered.

MSNBC if they were smart would move to settle quickly. without admitting guilt.

George Zimmerman's Attorneys Say They No Longer Represent Him

Cody Litkey This is a total non story. They just said that they have not heard from him and he might have another lawyer so they can't call themselves his lawyers. They never quit.

    Better to go on NBC-BS and let THEM say stupid crap, I suppose. The one bright spot in this kerfuffle is that you can easily spot the raving morons who are easily led.

  • Ashok Patel This guy should start a super pack.
  • Gloria Alvarado my guess is that this coward has gone inhiding
  • Michelle Williams Falk IMO Zimmerman is guilty. He should have been arrested from the beginning. And it should not have taken filing a missing person report for Trayvon's parents to find out he had been shot and killed. The police dept needs to be held accountable too!
  • Rob Schellinger ‎@Maggie MacKenzie "Bigots like Valerie Gould... make me want to puke!!!"
    
    Well, folks whose comments are full of crap make me shake my head.
  • Timothy Wright They're setting this up for an insanity defense. Just watch!
  • Cody Litkey Why do they need a defense? Zimmerman won't even be charged. No law was broken besides Trayvon Martin committing battery.
  • Sharon Swift He should of just called the police and left it to them, since when is it a crime to walk down the street! When he was told to back off he should have gone in the house and left it alone! He should have to answer to the court!
  • Kim Wawrowicz This case is over! No grand jury is being put into place....whatever anyone seems to think a decision has already been made in this case and Zimmerman will go free... right or wrong...idk? I was not there...and neither were any of you. The 911 calls were admidittly altered....this whole situation has come to a point where there is nothing more to be said
