“A reporter who publishes only what the government ‘authorizes’ is doing something other than reporting,”she said.

The National #Press Club condemned the decision in a statement. “If the news about our military must first be approved by the government, then the public is no longer getting independent reporting,”said Mike Balsamo, the organization’s president. “It is getting only what officials want them to see.

…The agreement represents a sharp departure from the practice over decades of #military & #civilian #defense leaders who have felt comfortable openly talking to & even going into war zones with the #press.

Those who refuse to sign the new policy will be stripped of or denied permanent credentials to cover the Pentagon.

For months, Defense Secy #PeteHegseth and his staff have been tightening restrictions on #Pentagon reporters while limiting military personnel’s direct communication with the #press. Like many defense secretaries before him, Hegseth has been deeply irritated by #leaks. His staff this year threatened to use polygraph tests to stop people from leaking information….

A..source told me..#WhiteHouse officials keep bringing up my name to #Trump. They are just planning their line of attack since the #MeidasTouchNetwork does not require any licenses from the federal government... But they want us eliminated.
