What the coverage shows

Most outlets frame the story around Iran’s seven-day proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, with Reuters, BBC News, Sky News, South China Morning Post and NBC News emphasizing the offer and its conditions, while Reuters alone foregrounds Iran awaiting an official U.S. response. The Guardian US, France 24, Al Jazeera and CNBC shift the emphasis to Trump’s rejection or reported refusal, and several of those, plus The Independent, also add expectations of renewed strikes or post-midterm escalation. CBS News’ extract is different again, focusing on a Pezeshkian interview, and The Independent alone also highlights Trump “renaming” the strait.
