Resumen

El Secretario de Defensa Pete Hegseth utilizó un emoji de mano saludando para responder a los medios que se niegan a firmar la nueva política de prensa del Pentágono, la cual impone restricciones al acceso y la solicitud de información por parte de los periodistas.

Varias organizaciones mediáticas prominentes, incluyendo The Washington Post, The New York Times, The Atlantic, CNN y NPR, han declinado firmar la nueva política de prensa del Pentágono, citando preocupaciones sobre los derechos de la Primera Enmienda y la libertad de prensa. La política requiere que los periodistas firmen un formulario reconociendo las restricciones sobre el acceso y la solicitud de información dentro del Pentágono.

En respuesta a estas negativas, el Secretario de Defensa Pete Hegseth respondió a los anuncios de los medios en redes sociales con un emoji de mano saludando. Por ejemplo, cuando The Washington Post declaró que la política "socava las protecciones de la Primera Enmienda al imponer restricciones innecesarias para recopilar y publicar información", Hegseth respondió con el mismo emoji.

La nueva política establece que los reporteros no pueden obtener ni solicitar ninguna información que el Departamento de Defensa no autorice explícitamente. Los representantes de los medios que no firmen antes de la fecha límite especificada deben entregar sus credenciales de prensa y desalojar las instalaciones del Pentágono en un plazo de 24 horas. La Asociación de Prensa del Pentágono ha expresado su preocupación, afirmando que la política "amordaza a los empleados del Pentágono y amenaza con represalias a los reporteros que buscan información que no ha sido aprobada previamente para su divulgación."

A pesar de la posible pérdida de acceso físico al Pentágono, editores y reporteros han reafirmado su compromiso de continuar cubriendo al ejército de EE. UU. de manera exhaustiva, con o sin credenciales de prensa.
