New York Times Battles Trump Administration Over Pentagon Media Restrictions

The New York Times is engaged in a court battle with the Trump administration over new Pentagon rules that the newspaper says restrict journalists' ability to do their work. U.S. District Judge Paul Friedman ruled in March that the Pentagon's new media access guidelines are unconstitutional, responding to a lawsuit filed by the Times. The legal dispute centers on what the newspaper describes as attempts by the administration to limit journalists' access and ability to report on Pentagon activities.
