News brief
Outlets from both sides of the political aisle, including the New York Times and Newsmax, have refused to agree to the new restrictions. Reporters have until today to sign a document agreeing to be escorted in unclassified areas and allowing their credentials to be revoked if they publish any information not approved for release. Many say the rules violate constitutional freedoms and hinder reporting on the U.S. military, which risks troops鈥 lives and is funded by some $1 trillion in taxpayer dollars.
