Iran denied that its diplomats were expelled from the US, calling reports of their removal "fake," while the US claimed it kicked out two Iranian diplomats who ignored an order to leave. Separately, Iraq secured a US sanctions waiver allowing Iranian airlines, except Mahan Air, to operate up to 40 daily flights to Najaf.

All 8 outlets and the headlines they were read from

Each outlet is read blind: a classifier sees its headline and opening next to the story's own headline, without the outlet's name, and scores how the report presents the story. A logo sits at the classifier's average reading, so it can fall between two levels. These readings compare coverage of this story only; they are not ratings of the outlets.
