**Trump’s Pentagon Requires Press to Agree Not to Disclose Sensitive Information**
Reporters face potential loss of credentials under new Pentagon rules that require approval before publishing sensitive military information, sparking a media outcry.
The policy, introduced during the Trump administration, mandates that journalists covering the Department of Defense must not disclose sensitive information without prior Pentagon approval. Failure to comply could result in the revocation of press credentials, raising concerns about press freedom and government transparency.
US President Donald Trump delivered a speech during a ceremony marking the 24th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks. The event took place beside a podium displaying the emblem of the Department of War.
