News outlets broadly reject Pentagon rules before deadline for signing

Media across the ideological spectrum said they will not sign the Defense Department’s restrictive new press policy by Tuesday’s afternoon deadline. The Washington Post, the New York Times, the Associated Press and CNN said they wouldn’t sign, as did Newsmax and the Washington Times.

"The policy says reporters cannot obtain or solicit any information the Defense Department does not explicitly authorize.
