URL: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/amazonians-response-inside-amazon-wrestling-big-ideas-nick-ciubotariu?redirectFromSplash=true
Browser / Version: Android 5.1.1
Operating System: Android 5.1.1
Problem type: Something else - I'll add details below

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Navigate to: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/amazonians-response-inside-amazon-wrestling-big-ideas-nick-ciubotariu?redirectFromSplash=true
  2. If you see splash page (promoting pulse native app), click "no thanks" at upper right.
  3. Now you should see the article. Look at the end of each line, looking for awkwardly-wrapped words

Expected Behavior: No words split in the middle.

Actual Behavior: Words get split in the middle at arbitrary points.

No such issue in Chrome on the same device (nexus 7 tablet). I suspect the site is relying on a nonstandard (or deprecated?) Webkit-specific CSS declaration for word-wrapping, with fallback CSS that breaks words arbitrarily.
