A U.S. judge will hear arguments on whether the Pentagon has violated a court order protecting journalists' access. The Pentagon under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had previously stated that journalists could face revocation if they requested unauthorized disclosure of classified information. The New York Times, the lead plaintiff in the lawsuit, claimed that the Pentagon had released an "interim" policy that restricts reporters with press passes from entering the building without an escort and leaves in place other rules rejected by the court. The judge has issued an injunction requiring the immediate reinstatement of media credentials for reporters covering the Pentagon.
