Political consultant Paul Begala attempts, in a friendly way, to correct a false story about himself airing on Fox News, only to be made to feel like a character in a Kafka novel. This might have been a bigger story (it’s not really news that Fox is the house organ for the Republican party, but this is blatant even for them), but instead it wound up buried in the gigantic flap over the news organizations’ premature burial of Hillary Clinton as a candidate. Begala provides transcripts of his email correspondence with a Fox reporter, and it is truly surreal.
