Pentagon Revokes Legacy Media Offices in Press Corps Shake-Up

The Department of Defense reallocates workspace to newer outlets, citing a plan to broaden media access under Secretary Pete Hegseth.

The New York Times, NBC News, NPR, and Politico have been ordered to vacate their Pentagon office spaces by February 14, 2025.
Their spaces will be reassigned to The New York Post, One America News Network, Breitbart News, and The Huffington Post as part of a new annual rotation system.
The Department of Defense stated the move aims to provide office access to outlets that have not previously had the opportunity to report from the Pentagon's Correspondents' Corridor.
Legacy media organizations will retain their Pentagon press credentials and access to briefings but will lose their physical workspaces.
Critics, including the Pentagon Press Association, have called the decision unprecedented and expressed concerns about targeting long-standing outlets that have covered the military for decades.
