Check it yourself — none of this needs this site

1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-7cd6645e2617.json prints 7cd6645e2617a06c39a54dfd0ef6cadedc5f16afbe09bf13b603055beffc65b3. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
2. Drop headline-7cd6645e2617.json and headline-7cd6645e2617.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-7cd6645e2617.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.
