国防部长赫格塞斯回应媒体拒绝签署五角大楼新新闻政策
摘要
国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯用一个挥手表情回应了拒绝签署五角大楼新新闻政策的媒体机构，该政策对记者的访问和信息获取施加了限制。
包括《华盛顿邮报》、《纽约时报》、《大西洋月刊》、CNN和NPR在内的多家知名媒体机构拒绝签署五角大楼的新新闻政策，理由是担忧该政策侵犯第一修正案权利和新闻自由。该政策要求记者签署一份表格，承认对五角大楼内部访问和信息获取的限制。
针对这些拒绝，国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯在社交媒体上对这些媒体机构的声明以一个挥手表情作出回应。例如，当《华盛顿邮报》表示该政策“通过对信息收集和发布施加不必要的限制，削弱了第一修正案的保护”时，赫格塞斯同样以该表情回应。
新政策规定，记者不得获取或索取国防部未明确授权的任何信息。未在规定期限内签署的媒体代表必须交出媒体证件，并在24小时内离开五角大楼设施。五角大楼新闻协会对此表示关切，称该政策“封口五角大楼员工，并威胁对寻求未经预先批准发布信息的记者进行报复”。
尽管可能失去对五角大楼的实体访问权限，编辑和记者们仍坚定承诺，无论是否持有新闻证件，都将继续全面报道美国军队的相关情况。
