User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.14; rv:77.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/77.0
Steps to reproduce:
Load the New York Times article seen here and activate reader mode.
Actual results:
Certain words in the article have embedded tooltips that can be clicked on for additional info. However, when Reader Mode is activated, those words don't appear at all. For example, the sentence:
Though I think I am guilty of not necessarily being very clear with my intention sometimes, like with the rally.
"The rally" has a tooltip containing contextual information. Firefox's reader mode drops it entirely and renders the sentence nonsensical, so the sentence reads:
Though I think I am guilty of not necessarily being very clear with my intention sometimes, like with
Expected results:
Reader Mode should include the text in these sentences and have some way of displaying the underlying tooltip info.

The relevant markup is embedded as:
<div class="rad-tooltip-link-wrapper" style="display:inline;"><a href="#tooltip-17" data-tooltip="tooltip-17" class="tooltip tooltip-17">the rally.<sup>17</sup></a><div class="rad-tooltip-item"><div class="rad-tooltip-item-wrapper"><div class="rad-tooltip-inline"><b>17</b> Hosted by Stewart and Stephen Colbert, who was then the host of ‘‘The Colbert Report,’’ the 2010 Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear drew more than 200,000 people to the National Mall in Washington.</div></div></div></div>
I don't really know how best to fix this, unfortunately.
