Oh noes! Did I tell you about the time my passport was going to expire in 2 months and 3 weeks and they would not let me go to .CH? It was for vacation (thankfully no hotel) but that one hurt)

News outlets broadly reject Pentagon rules before signing deadline
The Washington Post and other major news outlets have refused to sign the Defense Department’s restrictive new media policy, citing First Amendment concerns.
