Dr. Phil Staffer Posts Bail for "Girl Beating Video" Teen Perp

Tuesday April 15, 2008
Are you kidding me? Thomas Tennant, About.com Guide to Talk Shows, writes in his blog:
It looks like Dr. Phil is brewing up another storm. Over the weekend, a member of the show’s staff posted bail for one of the teenagers arrested for allegedly taking part in beating up their “friend” and videotaping it for later distribution on the Internet.
Since Thomas has the lowdown, I won't repeat it here and give Dr. Phil more column space than he deserves. But I'm sure I'm not the only one who wouldn't mind giving Dr. Phil a few whacks on camera for 'rewarding' these sadistic, opportunistic teens with a get-out-of-jail-free card and air time on his show.
