It’s a move that’s sure to upset ‘journalists’ and their fellow Democrats. The Pentagon is expanding media access but workspace is limited. What’s the solution? The military citadel is starting a rotation program that swaps out four media outlets every year from the workspace at the building. So, shift four out while shifting four in every year. It was announced Friday night that NBC News, NPR, The New York Times, and Politico would be soon leaving with Breitbart, The New York Post, OANN, and The Huffington Post replacing them.
Take a look at the press release, it lays out all the new rules. (READ)

The Pentagon is shaking up its press access, kicking out four major outlets—The New York Times, Politico, National Public Radio, and NBC News.
In their place, the Pentagon is granting access to OANN, Breitbart,… https://t.co/bYPou4BVvq pic.twitter.com/dsIS9Ebwva

All press members will still have the same access and privileges, all that’s changing is which outlets can occupy the physical workspace at the building.
This seems fair, but entitled outlets will surely write persecution sob stories about it. Posters are already bracing for it.
I wonder what type of revenge articles NYT, Politico, and NBC News will write now

Who cares? They only post nonsense anyway. Ignore it. 😂

Legacy media outlets are always mad about ‘something’ that’s nothing.
The organizations, except one, are decidedly right-leaning. That’s sure to upset the Democrat-supporting ones they just replaced.
That is good news.

Less propaganda is a great goal, and he did give the Huffington Post a spot, which is really left to balance out the center right and right outlets.
I am kind of shocked that some of those outlets getting in were not already part of the Pentagon Press

NYP is for sure an improvement.

Hunter Biden's laptop? Assuming I have that right.
It will be refreshing to have a news organization on-site that reported the truth about Hunter Biden's laptop instead of dutifully suppressing it for the benefit of the Democrat Party.
This move and others could have been done under past administrations. They chose not to do them.
The Trump Administration is doing extraordinary things that I didn’t even know they could do.

The old media is dead.

They were already dying, but Trump's administration has put them out of their misery
The Trump administration has stated its goal is to open up the government to the wide variety of media options Americans are getting their information from. It’s just another indication that the legacy media is dying, especially with a level playing field.
