A coalition of news outlets, including the Washington Examiner, said they wouldn’t sign the Pentagon‘s new document outlining new press rules.

“We do not plan to sign the Pentagon document. The Washington Examiner does not sign agreements with people we cover in our reporting in any other area, and we do not plan to make an exception in this case. The Department of War will set its rules and we will continue to provide our readers with strong independent news reporting,” Washington Examiner Editor-in-Chief Hugo Gurdon said.
