Update on Videotaped Beating

Today’s Drudge Report posts a story about the woman whose videotaped gang beating was the subject of Matt’s radio show two Sundays ago and my entry a few posts ago (Don’t Let Him Be Misunderstood). Sorry I can’t link directly on this computer, but as part of his commentary on the underside of the Internet, Matt played an audio of a woman who, according to the person filming, reportedly “snitched” on the wrong person. The short version of the story is that it was played on the local news and the victim saw herself and notified police.
Contrary to claims, the woman survived the beating and was punished not for being a tattletale, but for dissing the wrong guy.
While Drudge is clearly mentioned in the linked story, I don’t get the feeling that Matt is gleefully claiming credit for his role in facilitating justice. Had he really wanted to shamelessly toot his horn, I suppose he would have flashed his police alarm on the site. It’s one of many links on the page, toward the bottom.
