Egg 2: It's in the Media

Challenge:

New York Times, March 12 2015 An Easter Egg of the famous Hacky Easter white-hat hacking competition, was leaked last Tuesday by the famous hacker group “Bunnonymous”. Experts confirmed its authenticity, but could not crack the code hidden it in yet.

Can you do better?

Solution:

The QR code is made in HTML (source code), but is invalid

In the source we see:

11

.page { background-color: white !important;}
.h { display:none;}
.i3 { height: 10px; width: 10px; background: #fff;}
.o2 { height: 10px; width: 10px; background: #000;}
.l1 { height: 10px; width: 10px; background: #000;}
.x5 { height: 10px; width: 10px; background: #fff;}
@media print {	body {-webkit-print-color-adjust: exact;}
		.h { display:block;}
		.l1 { height: 10px; width: 10px; background: #000;}
		.x5 { height: 10px; width: 10px; background: #000;}
	      }"

If we change style of element class .x5 (first occurrence) to white, we can read the egg:
