Controlling the media..New York Times Rebukes Pentagon’s Reporter Restrictions: ‘At Stark Odds With the Constitutional Protection

[Twisted Gypsy Child]

Who did not see this coming. All part of Project 2025 which proposes significant changes to news reporting, primarily by targeting public media and restricting the press's access and scope. Let us not dwell on that. Let us concentrate on this

The Department of Defense explains it "remains committed to transparency" but now requires approval before reporting can be published​

The New York Times will not abide by new restrictions on reporters set by the Pentagon, which require pre-approval before reporting can be published, the paper announced Saturday morning. A spokesperson for the Times insisted such restrictions are “at stock odds with the constitutional protections of a free press in a democracy.”

The Times’ statement reads in full: “Asking independent journalists to submit to these kinds of restrictions is at stock odds with the constitutional protections of a free press in a democracy, and a continued attempt to throttle the public’s right to understand what their government is doing.”

Nothing unusual here.

The principles of protecting National Defense secrets vs Freedom of the Press is an age old tension in democratic societies.

This is only pertaining to reporters with PENTAGON ACCESS.

From the article...

Can you show me where access to the Pentagon is a Constitutional required?

Freedom of the press, probably in the 1st amendment. It's not like reporters are asking war secret questions. They probably don't even use Signal.

It's to edit out anything negative about Pete.

what part do you not comprehend

Failure to comprehend the English language detected.

The press is free to write whatever they want.

Access to the Pentagon is not established by the First Amendment.

Please try again, with more attention to detail.

WHERE is the Constitutional requirement a reporter must be allowed access to the Pentagon?

Cool. No access to the Pentagon for the New York Times.

Got it.

Since the requirement for pre-approval only applies to reporters with PENTAGON ACCESS, this problem is now solved.

Directly from your article in the OP:

Next?

It's just scheduled press conferences. The Pentagon invites them. That's how they're been gaining access for a very long time now.

Another BlueAnon conspiracy theory to gaslight liberal rubes. Looks like it's already working on a few idiots. Bravo!

Okay, so there is no Constitutional requirement to allow reporters into the Pentagon. That means there is no Constitutional restrictions from placing requirements on access to the Pentagon.

Then what exactly is the problem?

If the NYT reporters don't agree with the requirements, the privilege of access will not be extended.

There is no violation of the First Amendment here.

The OP, Jimmy Kimmel the Third, is clearly lying to intentionally mislead the reader.

The rampant authoritarianism is a problem

↑↑↑ THIS is creeping authoritarianism, and the Left on this board supported it VEHEMENTLY every step of the way.

What the Defense Department in the Trump Administration is doing is instating policies to protect important and classified National Defense information from being released prematurely with a regulation directed at ALL news reporting from reporters with privileged access to the Pentagon.

Going waaay back to Nixon's first administration:

"In 1970, political consultant Roger Ailes and other Nixon aides came up with a plan to create a new TV network that would circumvent existing media and provide "pro-administration" coverage to millions. "People are lazy," the aides explained in a memo. "With television you just sit — watch — listen. The thinking is done for you.""

Why Fox News was created

Richard Nixon and his aides wanted a TV network of their own

"The Watergate scandal. At first, Republicans dismissed the scandal as a Washington Post "witch hunt.""

Your concession is duly noted as attested by this non sequitur.

The truth...

I suspect Ruth is likely a Democrat and Jerry is likely a Republican.

Either way, the opinions of two people only sway the weak minded.

Are you ready to return to defending the topic of your thread?
