Description

City council moves to overhaul press pass system after fans of Luigi Mangione, the man who killed a CEO, were seen flaunting press credentials at court — even cheering him on. The new bill would make it easier to revoke badges for non-journalists, with hearings still required, while officials vow to tighten issuance standards. Council Speaker Julie Menin, a former media chief, argues the system must protect real reporters’ access while ensuring badges aren’t misused for agendas or disruption — a crucial step to preserve journalistic integrity in high-stakes moments.
