Steps to reproduce:

  1. Visit https://www.losangelesblade.com/2023/12/27/federal-judge-blocks-idaho-trans-ban-law/

  2. Since giant header makes article unreadable, open reader view.

Actual results:

  1. Reader view shows the headline for the right article, but the text for another article.

Federal judge blocks Idaho trans youth healthcare ban law
Special to the LA Blade
8–10 minutes

LOS ANGELES – The battle over a progressive media watchdog organization’s coverage of billionaire Elon Musk’s social media platform X (formerly Twitter) sharpened as Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced that he ordered his office to investigate Media Matters for America over “allegedly fraudulent solicitation of donations.”

Expected results:

  1. Reader view should show the right article.
