Dozens of reporters turned in access badges and exited the Pentagon on Wednesday rather than agree to government-imposed restrictions on their work, pushing journalists who cover the American military further from the seat of its power. The nation’s leadership called the new rules “common sense” to help regulate a “very disruptive” press.
News outlets were nearly unanimous in rejecting new rules imposed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that would leave journalists vulnerable to expulsion if they sought to report on information — classified or otherwise — that had not been approved by Hegseth for release.
Many of the reporters waited to leave together at a 4 p.m. deadline set by the Defense Department to get out of the building. As the hour approached, boxes of documents lined a Pentagon corridor and reporters carried chairs, a copying machine, books and old photos to the parking lot from suddenly abandoned workspaces. Shortly after 4, about 40 to 50 journalists left together after handing in badges.
They could all also stop sucking his dick and start reporting on reality. Call a spade a spade, or a dictator a dictator. If trump loses the media, he loses a lot of his power to control the narrative. I don’t believe that most of these news outlets have a spine and are willing to work together to tell the truth, but I can dream… Sometimes.
Think about who owns the networks.
idk if i were a billionaire i wouldn’t want the economy as wildly fucked as it is and i’d be pretty keen on cheap exploitable immigrants
i really don’t understand what they’re going for
It’s all about money. They’re making boatloads from the stock market dips. They won’t care about immigration until it starts hurting them. Even then this administration will just bail them out
I don’t wanna, because I know.
