2nd: Cooper asks if the father is sure it's Trayvon's voice crying for help. That question is fine too.
3rd: Cooper askes what the police have told the father about the blood found on Zimmerman. Another legitimate question.
4th: Now Cooper strays. He states that Zimmerman was told not to follow Trayvon "We don't need you to do that." and then that's it. But Zimmerman responded, "OKAY." And at this moment in the 911 call, Trayvon was walking towards Zimmerman. Irresponsible not to point that out.
5th: Cooper asks the lawyer a question regarding the police handling of the case so far. Good question.
6th: Then Cooper takes the bait and plays the race card along with the lawyer. I believe this is where Anderson was going all along. He suggests, after the lawyer implies it, that had Trayvon been the shooter, Trayvon would be sitting in jail (because he's black.) Maybe true by it's speculation and Copper shouldn't speculate if he's just "presenting the facts."
7th: Then Cooper asks a leading question and actually quotes Zimmerman out of context. Cooper's point is that Zimmerman profiled Treyvon and that the fact that Treyvon was black was the real reason Zimmerman was suspicious of him. Cooper leads the lawyer into discussion how MANY people wear sneakers, jeans, and a hoodie. (Even Cooper admitted he dresses like that - so what. That's irrelevant)
8th: "......is that just a matter of race?" Cooper follows up with another leading question -- again going into the "racial" aspect of the case.
Throughout the video, CNN runs cute little pictures of Treyvon but avoids using his current "ganstar" pics. Wonder why? And why do they use an old photo of Zimmerman that makes him look like a thug when his most current picture would be more accurate for today?
