Description Jesse Beach 2015-09-17 16:23:45 PDT 
The accessible label of link elements (content, aria-label, title) is not included in the composed label indicated by aria-labelledby. I've put together a codepen that can be opened in Chrome (correct behavior) and Safari (aberrant behavior).

http://codepen.io/jessebeach/pen/xwZQRp

Chrome produces: "Catelyn Stark, Ned Stark, Arya Stark with Jon Snow and Bran Stark Some content group"
Safari produces: ", Ned Stark , with and Some content group"

The missing words are content from link elements.

This produces a bad experience when, for example, the title of a post, which contains a link, is used as the label for an article or story item.
