Pentagon dismisses Stars and Stripes staff
The Pentagon dismissed Stars and Stripes' editor-in-chief Erik Slavin, Middle East reporter Lara Korte, and longtime publisher Max Lederer, citing insubordination related to unauthorized interviews and disagreements over editorial independence. The firings follow efforts by Pentagon leadership to overhaul the military newspaper, focusing on reporting related to military affairs and eliminating content considered a "woke distraction." The department aims to restore Stars and Stripes to its original mission of serving service members with independent journalism.
