Jack Keane, the former Vice Chief of Staff of the United States Army, took the Pentagon's new press policy to task during an appearance on Fox News.

The Federalist, the Epoch Times, and One America News signed the Defense Department’s press rules. The rest are freelancers, independent or work for media outfits based overseas.

Appearing on Fox News’ Special Report on Tuesday, retired General Jack Keane, the station’s senior strategic analyst, and host Bret Baier were united in their condemnation of the Pentagon’s harsh new restrictions.

Jack Keane, who served as the Army’s acting chief of staff, said he had “never, ever seen” a policy like the one Pete Hegseth proposed.

Fox News anchor Bret Baier clapped back at MAGA fans upset about the network joining a protest of the Trump Pentagon's proposed press policies.
