Pentagon's Restrictive Media Policy Following Classified Information Breach. John Batchelor and Jeff McCausland discuss the perplexing new Pentagon policy that restricts information flow and excludes major media. This situation contrasts with the historic media access observed during events like the D-Day invasion in 1944.
