I think the media is over reporting and sensationalizing this whole incident just for the sake of creating news. It has nothing to do with reporting the truth or seeing a sense of justice/closure being brought to the situation, reporting has more to do with making money and boosting readership/ratings. Which title would be a more likely to draw an audience: "Racist White Man Kills Innocent Black Teenager" or "Man Kills Teenage Thug in Self-Defense"? On the media's part, I think there behavior has been completely disgusting, playing on people's fears and serious societal problems (racism, delinquency, etc.). That being said, I think Zimmerman did probably act on racial motivations and Trayvon did probably have some thug-like qualities, but we'll never truly know what happened here, because CNN and Fox News have already tainted a lot of minds.
