The Washington Post's media reporter Scott Nover detailed exactly who was left to cover the largest government agency. Pro-MAGA outlets The Federalist, the Epoch Times, and OAN all signed Hegseth's pledge, which said that journalists are banned from soliciting or obtaining any information that is not pre-approved by the Pentagon. Nover reported on the other remaining people in the building: A reporter for the Turkish newspaper Aksam signed the agreement, as did three individuals from the Turkish state-run Anadolu Agency and two Turkish freelancers.
