五角大楼要求记者签署访问协议 引发对新闻自由的担忧 Pentagon requires journalists to sign access agreement, sparking press freedom concerns.

新的五角大楼政策要求记者签署一封信,承认对获取国防部保密信息的限制,现在必须在释放前得到官员的批准。 A new Pentagon policy requires journalists to sign a letter acknowledging restrictions on accessing unclassified Defense Department information, which must now be approved by officials before release. 该规则由国防部长彼得·赫格塞特执行,引发了与新闻界的对峙,他们担心这一规则威胁到新闻自由,使政府能够控制报道。 The rule, implemented under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, has sparked a standoff with the press, who fear it threatens press freedom and enables government control over reporting. 虽然五角大楼官员否认必须让该部门澄清报道,但政策警告说,鼓励官员违反规则会导致失去接触机会。 While Pentagon officials deny that stories must be cleared with the department, the policy warns that encouraging officials to break rules could result in loss of access. 这一行动遵循了先前对新闻行动、简报和外派安排的限制,加剧了对透明度降低的关切。 The move follows prior restrictions on press movement, briefings, and outlet placements, fueling concerns about reduced transparency. 包括著名记者在内的批评者认为,这些变化反映了限制监督的努力,他们引用了过去的事件,如“信号门 ” ( Signalgate ) 。 没有关于有多少记者签名的明确细节,但争议凸显了五角大楼和媒体之间在准入和问责问题上的持续紧张关系。 Critics, including prominent journalists, argue the changes reflect an effort to limit scrutiny, citing past incidents like “Signalgate.” No clear details are available on how many reporters have signed, but the dispute underscores ongoing tensions between the Pentagon and the media over access and accountability.
