Output

Based on these stories and their arrangement, this appears to be from 2020-04-04. The major clue is the story about New Jersey needing COBOL programmers for their unemployment claims system, which was a notable news item that emerged in early April 2020 during the initial COVID-19 pandemic response. The Remdesivir story at the top also fits this timeframe, as Remdesivir was being studied as a potential COVID-19 treatment during this period.
