1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-bcc117aad46a.json prints bcc117aad46aa3106b676edbefeb6aa68ecad5c99decc27cedae22420160d3a5. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
2. Drop headline-bcc117aad46a.json and headline-bcc117aad46a.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-bcc117aad46a.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.
