A new right wing press corps, INCLUDING THE GATEWAY PUNDIT, at the Pentagon:

Nearly one week since a rash of Pentagon journalists turned in their press credentials after refusing to sign a new restrictive press policy, the Defense Department announced a “new media” press corps, largely hailing from right-wing outlets.

The 60 peoplefrom various news organizationsrepresent, “a broad spectrum of new media outlets and independent journalists,” Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell wrote in a statement on X, adding that all of the publications agreed to the agency’s press policy.

According to an draft of the announcement obtained by The Washington Post ahead of Parnell’s tweet, the coalition of signatories includes streaming service Lindell TV (started by MyPillow CEO and Trump ally Mike Lindell), the websites the Gateway Pundit, the Post Millennial, Human Events, and the National Pulse. It also includes Turning Point USA’s media brand Frontlines, as well as influencer Tim Pool’s Timcast, and a Substack-based newsletter called Washington Reporter. The memo said that “many independent journalists” also signed, but did not specify who they were.

“The Defense Department has confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America,” the Pentagon Press Association said

“I admit this place hasn’t been much more than a news aggregator lately. One does run out of ways to say this is bad, they are lying, etc, or to point out the media tending to, at best, privilege those lies before sneaking in the truth in paragraph 13.” Link

Yep.

Via Aaron Parnas:

• 
  FCC Chair Brendan Carr harshly criticized Jimmy Kimmel for calling Charlie Kirk’s suspected shooter a MAGA Republican, suggesting ABC affiliates could face license reviews if such “news distortion” continued.
• In an interview with YouTuber Benny Johnson, Carr said affiliates risk license revocation if they keep airing Kimmel’s show without changes, floated the possibility of suspension or firing, and invoked the FCC’s public interest rules.
• Carr linked his warning to broader Trump-era media shake-ups — including Colbert’s Late Show cancellation, defunding of NPR and PBS, and pressure on CBS News — arguing that Disney (ABC’s parent company) must rein in Kimmel.

But don’t call them Nazis.
