Ready for a bombshell? SEIU gave Media Matters $50,000 in November of last year, just as the police report story was breaking on Big Government. In response, Media Matters began a series of reports attacking Big Government for its series of stories calling for Justice.
Fascinating, no? The reason for the SEIU donations? Communications.
Perhaps that would explain this post from Media Matters, published one week after the check was received (maybe they waited for it to clear).
Title" Does Andrew Breitbart Know Something The St Louis Police Department Does Not?
...So yes, if Breitbart has some super-secret evidence from the Gladney case, by all means he should share it with the St. Louis police department. If not, I'd suggest Breitbart stop advertising his ignorance.
Of course, there was no super secret evidence. There was just, the evidence, which Pat Redington sat on for almost four months. Media Matters thought they had it in the bag. With no charges filed two months after the assault, they felt safe writing that the assault was a scam.
And then the police report hit, and then the series of witnesses, and the KMOX report. And so charges were filed, with no credible explanation as to why it took so long.
There are going to be a series of revelations popping up in the next week or so, but keep in mind that SEIU staff members are facing jail time for criminal assault, and Media Matters stepped up the attacks after receiving $50,000 in donations from SEIU. What did SEIU get for their money? Not much. Just yesterday, Media Matters inadvertently admitted that hospital records viewed by the prosecuting attorney helped lead to the assault charges.
This is why you don't pull on sweater threads, people.
