Robert Zimmerman Jr. on George Zimmerman: "The Most Honest Brother"

From the Piers Morgan interview tonight - Robert Zimmerman Jr., the brother of George Zimmerman, may have made a Freudian slip near the end of the interview:

MORGAN: Has George ever lied to you?

ZIMMERMAN: Not to my knowledge, no.

MORGAN: He's always been completely, 100 percent honest?

ZIMMERMAN: He's -- he would be the more honest of the two. The most honest brother. I would say. He's very straight and narrow. And you know, very helpful guy. Very concerned with his neighbor and the truth.

Not exactly a ringing endorsement of the integrity of his own brother and then he tries to rebound his slip as if he was conscious he just made a mistake - what do make of it?

His brother wasn't there, his father wasn't there, Joe Oliver wasn't...this is just more white noise that the corporate media loves to play with to manipulate a story. It's filler to feed the conjecture mill and a vain attempt by Chicken Noodle Nuze to "own" this story to try to get ratings for their sorry ass "network".
