"And, briefly brings up the irony of Melvin King meeting with Cory Carroll, and talking with Amber."

That does not say that Amber (or Scott) met, or spoke of, or had anything to do with Cory Carroll.

You're quite right, it's a dangling clause. I made a complete sentence out of it by taking the misplaced period, threw in a comma before "and" instead of after, and think I understood perfectly well what the writer was "glazing" over. Of course, that might not make Amber look too good, so we better not go there.
