You should be able to reinstall the fedora-release package to get the 
default content reinstalled onto your system. If you want to save the 
edited files for future use, rename or move the present files to 
somewhere safe. I believe changing the extension from .repo to another 
extension should stop yum from considering the older repo files.

rpm -Uvh --replacefiles --replacepkgs fedora-release*.rpm
should put in the original files. If you had edited files, the original 
files would be saved with the .rpmnew or .rpmsave extensions.
