PressTrace
Stories can change. Old versions should not vanish.
PressTrace saves each public version of a news article with a capture time, so readers can see what moved and when it moved. Below is one LA Times article — one newspaper, one night, six versions.
UCLA moves to shut down pro-Palestinian encampment as "unlawful," warns students to leave
The first published version, captured at 03:08. UCLA is the subject, the action is enforcement, and the encampment carries the legal label — "unlawful." Anyone who read the article in the first hours saw this record.
Why this exists
A headline is evidence. It should be preserved.
The record
PressTrace saves every public version of a news article as it changes after publication. When an editor rewrites a headline or reworks the body, the new version is kept beside the old ones with its capture time. The old version stays visible, so you can see what a story said when it first went live and what it says now, side by side.
