The Pentagon implemented new media restrictions requiring journalists to pledge not to report unauthorized information, even if unclassified. Fox News criticized the policy, calling it unprecedented and a threat to press freedom. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth defended the measures, stating journalists can no longer freely roam secure facilities. Legal experts and former Pentagon correspondents condemned the restrictions as excessive and a departure from prior practices. The policy follows numerous leaks from the Trump administration, despite Fox News' past defense of Trump-related controversies.
