Pentagon restricts photographers from briefings as Hegseth attacks war coverage

The Pentagon has blocked photographers from attending briefings given by Pete Hegseth on the war with Iran. The move is reported as part of an effort to control imagery from the briefings.

Hegseth has repeatedly condemned press coverage of the conflict, calling it 'fake' and accusing media of not being positive enough about U.S. military actions. He has also rejected the idea that the war is spreading.
