The following SC is present in the OG -

Outlining his strategy for nursing the troubled conglomerate back to health, the chief executive’s plans were announced on Wednesday for cutting the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months.

A. executive’s plans were announced on Wednesday for cutting the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
B. executive’s plans, which are to cut the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months, were announced on Wednesday
C. executive’s plans for cutting the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months were announced on Wednesday
D. executive announced plans Wednesday to cut the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months
E. executive announced plans Wednesday that are to cut the company’s huge debt by selling nearly $12 billion in assets over the next 18 months

Though I agree with the explanation the correct answer D sounds funny since Wednesday seems out of place in the sentence, is that an official mistake or is acceptable ?
Thanks !

OA: The chief executive ANNOUNCED plans WEDNESDAY to cut the company's huge debt.

Here, Wednesday serves as an adverb similar to yesterday or today:
The chief executive announced plans TODAY.
The chief executive announced plans YESTERDAY.
The chief executive announced plans WEDNESDAY.
In each case, the adverb in blue correctly serves to express WHEN the chief executive ANNOUNCED.
