When viewing the comments from a Journal Article which has been approved more than once, it's possible to view the comments from the original version, rather than the latest or current version.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a new folder in the Web Content section.
2. Edit the folder to use the Single Approver workflow for any new articles.
3. Create a new article and submit it for review.
4. In My Workflow Tasks, assign the article to yourself.
5. Under the "Assigned to Me" section, click on the article.
6. Add a comment to the article in the workflow process.
7. Approve the article.
8. Create a web content display portlet and add the approved article.
9. Configure the portlet under the "Content Metadata" section to include comments.
10. Confirm the correct comment is showing.
11. Repeat steps 3-7, but with the existing article again.
12. View the web content display created in step 8.

Expected results: The latest approved version of the article and comments are displayed

Actual results: The latest approved version of the article is displayed, alongside the original version's comments.
