1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-f21bf78dff3e.json prints f21bf78dff3e5bcc0739df3ef6c16314b0daaed7e36869fc77d9544b67948fba. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
2. Drop headline-f21bf78dff3e.json and headline-f21bf78dff3e.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-f21bf78dff3e.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.
