DeLay's Generous Travel Allowance

Laura Rozen of War and Piece notices that Fox gives DeLay quite a generous travel allowance:

Going through DeLay's reported travel, a few entries stand out, including this one: Why in the world did Fox News Sunday pay more than $13,000 for DeLay to go from Sugarland Texas to DC in October?

I thought Congress passed some laws years ago that made this kind of stuff illegal. Ah, but a couple of years ago, Tom DeLay was overheard saying that he is the Congress. Well, that explains everything.
