Washington Post, NYT and More Reject Trump’s Revised Pentagon Press Policy, Citing First Amendment Rights

[whitehall]

The TDS media wouldn't sign a Trump cure for cancer if it happened. What else is new?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Trump is up to what, 5 wars he stopped.

TDS DONT CARE.

 

[WEATHER53]

All the media tells is lies. Don’t want to sign it; the doors will not be opened.

 

[Meister]

Not sure what brought this on with the Pentagon. But, as long as there isn't any shenanigans being
played by the media, they should have their right in reporting and investigating, even if it's
uncomfortable for the Pentagon.

 

[Meister]

Trump is up to what, 5 wars he stopped.

TDS DONT CARE.

I think it's 8 conflicts now.

Hey, that's a very accurate analogy.

 

[berg80]

I think it's 8 conflicts now.

Please tell me another one.

 

[ColonelAngus]

I think it's 8 conflicts now.

He is so HITLER, ISN’T HE?

These people are literally deranged.

NO, DO NOT HELP STOP THE RAMPANT CRIME IN OUR CITIES…WE LIKE IT THIS WAY!

 

[berg80]

Petey has been on the warpath ever since Trump ordered him to lay off the booze. Only one incoherent Clown (Trump) at a time is allowed in that mob.

He's a windup toy with a good haircut who has zero self respect.

 

[Seymour Flops]

Then they can do their jobs and develop credible sources. They never minded reporting press releases from the Autopen Administration as if they were the gospel.

 

[Meister]

Please tell me another one.

I listed then last night, why don't you do your homework instead of looking like a fool.?

News outlets refuse to sign Pentagon’s new press policy as deadline looms​

Most of the nation’s leading news organizations have said they will not sign a policy severely restricting journalists’ access to the Pentagon ahead of a Tuesday deadline set by the Trump administration.

Outlets including the New York Times, Washington Post, The Associated Press, The Hill and NewsNation will not sign the policy, which limits access for reporters who are credentialed to work in the massive Arlington, Va., building.

The Pentagon Press Association (PPA) said in a forceful statement last week Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and his department are trying to “stifle a free press” with the new policy, which it said, “conveys an unprecedented message of intimidation to everyone within the DoD, warning against any unapproved interactions with the press and even suggesting it’s criminal to speak without express permission — which plainly, it is not.”

Only one media outlet, pro-Trump conservative network One America News, has said it will sign the Pentagon’s new policy. Conservative cable channel Newsmax has said it will not sign, calling the restrictions “unnecessary.”

Should OAN even be referred to as a news outlet?

Is this more embarrassing for the unqualified, former weekend anchor on Faux or was it his comical performance in front of the military brass? It's a tossup.

If leftist could only understand we don’t have a free press and haven’t for decades we could take this country back from the politicians.

Pentagon does not answer to the lying media

MAGA is losing on all fronts on every issue.

 

[Dr. Phosphorous]

I missed the part where the press gets a vote on the Pentagon's policy.

And why shouldn't the media get to report on the Pentagon? Are you a Nazi?

Good riddance.

It’s unbelievable that press are allowed to roam around in the Pentagon, it’s a military base and all my time at military bases that would never be allowed.

But they do, Nazi.

Because most military bases don't have much news, idiot. The Dept of Defense is in the Pentagon.

Who says they can’t report on the Pentagon.

If they want in a military installation then they need to follow protocol. It’s absurd they were ever allowed to roam free.

 

[theHawk]

Because most military bases don't have much news, idiot. The Dept of Defense is in the Pentagon.

So that means they should be able to roam around wherever they want? Without badges? Ridiculous.
