- Federal judge nukes Pentagon media escort requirement
A federal judge blocked the Pentagon from enforcing a media escort requirement for journalists, ruling it violates the First Amendment due to retaliation and viewpoint discrimination. The decision follows the Pentagon's 2025 press policy that led to an exodus of veteran journalists, with the judge citing the importance of a free press for national security.
