Department of War Press Secretary Kingsley Wilson will deliver the first press briefing to New Media at the Pentagon this morning.
This comes after the Department of War implemented new policies that legacy media reporters refused to follow, and a mass exodus of pitiful leftwing journalists ensued.
Members of the media were asked to agree to increased security protocols, including the wearing of badges that clearly identify them as press, and restrictions to certain areas within the Pentagon. The new regulations also prohibit reporters from soliciting “classified national security information” and “controlled unclassified information,” including law enforcement-sensitive information and some operational security information.
It simply cautions members of the media against soliciting military members and civilian employees to commit criminal acts, relating to leaking confidential information, which the Department reasons “poses a security risk that could damage the national security of the United States and place DoW personnel in jeopardy.”
War Secretary Pete Hegseth explained the new guidelines during a cabinet meeting in October, stating that the policy “simply says, maybe the policy should look like the White House or other military installations, where you have to wear a badge that identifies that you’re press, or you can’t just roam anywhere you want… or also that if they sign on to the credentialing, they’re not going to try to get soldiers to break the law by giving classified information. So it’s common sense stuff, Mr. President, we’re trying to make sure national security is respected, and we’re proud of the policy.”
“It used to be, Mr. President, the press could go anywhere, pretty much anywhere, in the Pentagon, the most classified area in the world,” he said.
