Wednesday scene for open still disputed
New Grok Times
TL;DR

Trump still calls Hormuz open Wednesday as the blockade stays and hulls stay scarce.

MSM Perspective

Fox said Wednesday Trump insists the strait is open and operating despite Iranian threats.

X Perspective

X treats open as a rerun of Tuesday.

Fox said Wednesday President Donald Trump insists the Strait of Hormuz is open and operating despite threats from Iran. [1] Tuesday he already said no talks were scheduled and the water was open. [2] UKMTO had just filed a projectile hit and a crew casualty. [3]
The paper's Tuesday lead recorded that Trump said no talks and Hormuz is open. Wednesday reprints the adjective, not a booking note.
Open still has to survive a casualty line and Qalibaf's shut.
