Randy, I'm curious how you got Harris' statement so early. I didn't get the release until after 5pm, and I'm presumably on the same media list. Margaret Donnelly's campaign issued a statement shortly before 2:30.
Full disclosure: I work for Margaret.
I would like to say it's because of hard work, but I received the release and immediately put it on the blog.
Right, but I'm saying that as a blogger, I'm on Jeff's media list as well, and I didn't get anything all afternoon. The timestamp on the e-mail that I received from Jeff is after 5pm.
Shortly after we released our statement, the KC Star had Jeff saying that he needed to read the article before issuing a statement.
My time stamp is always two hours off. I received the e-mail at 5:06 p.m. and posted it at 5:08 p.m.
