Zimmerman getting paid by NBC?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/...inst-nbc-news/

I think they settle for 250 grand or so......Zim needs the cash....he'll take it.

This guy is going to need a lot more then 250K. Is it a starting point? Sure...But He won't be able to show himself in public again/get a job that has to deal with going outside. If your him what do you do? Move to a state like West Virginia or North Dakota?

He could move to Mississippi or Alabama. Oh, wait, He is a Latino, so that won't work either..

Judging by all of the support he has had there has to be one of those supporters who will hire him.

Zimmerman will get a bunch of money from NBC. Lawyers don't go where there is no money for them.

I don't know squat about the ins and outs of slander, but is that his angle here?
Does he even have a case?

What NBC did was pathetic. I hope they get nailed for it.

Must be some place in this horrible racist country for him to live. The south Bronx in New York might work...

This is why I like you (as a poster...i've never met you) You see a lot of things for what they are.

NBC edited Zimmerman's 911 call to the point of trying to make him look like he was following Martin b/c he was black. But when you run the entire call, that wasn't the case at all

i listened to a local radio station guy this morning, the list grows from NBC....ABC, CNN, as well as newspapers have all promoted the defendant as a racist. He gave the actual comments / writings, all of which were false & painted the defendant in a false and negative light

JMHO any $$ awarded to Zimmerman will end up either in the Martin's hands, and even more $$ in the hands of activists and lawyers

what he needs to do
1) Hire a personal trainer to come get him in the best shape of his life
2) Get Joe Dirt like hair implants
3) Change his name
4) move to a populated city
5) Never talk to a soul about it

He might have to pull a "Snowden" and leave the country. If i were him, i'd move as fast as i can to a country that won't export me if the US decides to 'retry' this case. I feel that if GZ stays in the USA, he will eventually end up in jail (ala oj) for some 'crime' or something like that. He needs to get out of dodge as fast as he can, if he hasnt already left.

He'll probably end up on a beach some where in the Caribbean or Central America, living la Vida loca, drinking Mai-Tai's and listening to Jimmy Buffett - That's what I'd do.
