Check it yourself — none of this needs this site

1. Hash the record: sha256sum headline-5f2ef9969e2e.json prints 5f2ef9969e2ee7b690a8da9a443e7f63e025ec0e318dcd16fed8bf3781dff94a. Its first twelve characters are the end of this record's address.
2. Drop headline-5f2ef9969e2e.json and headline-5f2ef9969e2e.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-5f2ef9969e2e.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.
