WASHINGTON >> At least 20 news organizations declined to sign a new Pentagon access policy for journalists, warning of the potential for less comprehensive coverage of the world’s most powerful military ahead of a Tuesday deadline to accept new restrictions.

Major news outlets, including the NYT, AP and Reuters, refuse to sign Pentagon’s new press rules, risking eviction over First Amendment concerns.

Fox News, the former employer of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, has joined a near-unanimous outpouring of news organizations rejecting new rules for journalists based in the Pentagon.
