Description

Dozens of reporters turned in access badges and exited the Pentagon on Wednesday rather than agree to government-imposed restrictions on their work, pushing journalists who cover the American military further from the seat of its power. The nation's leadership called the new rules "common sense" to help regulate a "very disruptive" press. FRANCE 24's Sharon Gaffney speaks with Jodie Ginsberg, president of the Committee to Protect Journalists.
