The Guardian newspaper will not sign the Pentagon's press policy, joining The New York Times and CNN in rejecting the new rules ahead of the Tuesday deadline, according to reporting by Maxwell Tani via Scott Nover on Twitter. It remains uncertain if any news organizations will agree to the policy, but those that have publicly refused are growing. The Guardian's decision was announced on October 13th, 2025, during the current reporting window. Previous reports from the preceding hours detailed ongoing clashes between federal agents and protesters outside an ICE facility in Portland, Oregon, and comments from President Donald Trump regarding Qatar and China. These developments, however, are not directly connected to the Pentagon's press policy.
