for future reference -- here's the path of Walt's story today

[grasswire]

Walt posted his thesis on Bush's mystery medal on DU at 8:21 EDT.

Kos picked up the story on his blog at 15:31 GMT (what is that in EDT?)

Democrats.com picked it up and linked to DU

MSNBC picked it up from KOS at 3:30 p.m. EDT

Michael Moore picked it up from KOS or MSNBC, linked to DU

Democrats.com wrote a blurb for Buzzflash, posted with link to DU

Now, it's everywhere. And so we all owe a big thanks to Daily Kos!
Others who were contacted during the day missed a scoop.

Thanks for the "path". It's been a fun day. I e-mailed like a crazy person all day long.

Here's hoping that you have more to add to your timeline tomorrow.

9. I mentioned it on a local radio talk show in Madison

Made the call on 1370AM... I could barely keep control trying to spread the word...something like we are sinking the Swiftboat Liars for Chimpy and now our sights are set for the White House Ship of Fools.

This is scarin' the Freeperzoids. You muthuhs wanna play hardball. Sheeeiittt. FWAP!
