The Department of Defense announced Friday night that it will institute a new “annual media rotation program” for its in-house press corps .

In addition to NBC News , The New York Times , National Public Radio and Politico must vacate their dedicated workspaces.

The move by Pentagon officials comes seven days after the Senate confirmed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth by the narrowest of margins.

Leavitt also said her team was working “diligently to restore the press passes of the 440 journalists whose passes were wrongly revoked by the previous administration.” This article was originally published on NBCNews.com .
