This is really amazing.
Yesterday, Major Garrett from Fox News ran with the rumor that Paul Begala was joining the Clinton campaign -- and despite repeated, personal denials from Paul Begala, Garrett kept reporting the story. This says everything you need to know about reporting at Fox News. Definitely check out Begala's post about this over at Huffington. It's illuminating to say the least. Begala actually includes the e-mails he sent to Garrett -- and Garrett's responses. Jacki Schechner, in a post at her blog titled "Major Disfunction", had this to say about Begala, with whom she used to work:
I know Paul. I like Paul. A lot. He's a solid guy.I don't really know Paul, but I know and trust Jacki.
When he recounts this saga, I trust this is exactly how it went down.
