My comment:
(a)
(i) summary underneath the title in print: Inside the meltdown spiral at Zume, one of Masayoshi Son's latest investment debacles
(ii) Print and the online version are identical.
(b)
(i) The Irish and Scottish surname McBride is "Anglicized form of Gaelic Mac Brighde, from earlier Mac Giolla Bhrighde (Irish), Mac Gille Brighde (Scottish) 'son of the servant of (Saint) Brighid.' Compare Kilbride."
(A) English dictionary:
* Mac (prefix): "(Irish and Scottish patronymic surnames) son of"https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Mac
(B) Scottish Gaelic-English dictionary:
* gille (noun masculine): "(dated) servant, follower"
https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/gille
(C) Brigid
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigid
(section 6 Other names and etymology: Old Irish Brigit came to be spelled Briġid and Brighid by the modern Irish period)
(c) Read the first five and a half paragraphs and decide whether you want to read further.
