Thanks Bradford.
We figured it out. it was an NTP issue.
We host on AWS, and the time sync packages (NTP) were a little bit out of sync, so we deleted them and installed chrony instead and that worked.
For anyone who is interested, here are the instructions (under configuring the Amazon time sync services):

thanks again and great job on the plugin. We appreciate all your work and help.
Does changing the time inside wp settings have no effect? It actually has to be the hosting server itself?
I mean, how do you know what Apple’s News Publisher time zone is, so that i can adjust my wp setting.
Thanks Bradford.
What do you mean by: “incorrect time zone or is simply too far off the current time” please?
