TL;DR

Judge questions Pentagon about new press restrictions The New York Times told a federal judge Monday that the Pentagon has flouted the court's ruling blocking it from enforcing its policy limiting journalists' access to the Defense Department headquarters. The Times urged the court to compel the government to comply with the order to reinstate press credentials U.S. District Judge Paul Friedman did not rule from the bench after he heard a second round of arguments from lawyers for the Times and the Trump administration.
