1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-acd512d1dddb.json prints acd512d1dddb246505a9343e8f9c44a5df78ca392deb3f7fd4aceac4c00c8bc7. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
2. Drop headline-acd512d1dddb.json and headline-acd512d1dddb.json.ots onto opentimestamps.org, which checks the receipt against the Bitcoin block chain. Or, with the OpenTimestamps client and a Bitcoin node: ots verify headline-acd512d1dddb.json.ots (ots upgrade first while the receipt is pending).
3. Open the Wayback Machine's captures above: the capture of the record page shows this hash as it stood then, and the capture of the story page shows the newsroom's own page.
