The Pentagon announced Friday that journalists will be allowed into the building of the country’s largest federal agency only if they agree not to publish certain types of information. “Failure to abide by these rules may result in suspension or revocation of your building pass and loss of access,” it added. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth dismissed concerns in a post on X, writing: “The ‘press’ does not run the Pentagon - the people do. Wear a badge and follow the rules - or go home.”Until now, reporters traditionally had access to unclassified Pentagon spaces, including the offices of the Defense Secretary, joint staff, and service branches. Since then, reporters have been confined to press bullpens, the cafeteria, and the courtyard, with escorts required to move elsewhere in the building.
