Pentagon announces new restrictions on journalists

The Trump administration has announced new restrictions on reporters at the Pentagon. Under the new restrictions, the Pentagon will require credentialed journalists to sign a pledge to refrain from reporting information that has not been authorized for release, including unclassified information. Journalists who don’t abide by the policy risk losing credentials that provide access to the Pentagon. In a social media post, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said “the press is no longer allowed to roam the halls.” Follow the rules,” he said, “or go home.”
