Navy Access to Fox News Web Site Blocked Update: It's back
Update 12:18 CSTU.S. Navy says access to Foxnews.com restored, cannot explain earlier blockage but cites technical, not 'policy' issue Members of the U.S. Navy were blocked Friday from gaining access to Fox News' Web site, a Navy spokesman confirmed to FoxNews.com. Lt. Justin Cole, a spokesman for the Navy, said that he wasn't able to access that site along with other news sites, including NewYorkTimes.com. But Navy members could still go to MSNBC.com and CNN.com. "There's got to be some type of issue with NMCI," Cole said, referring to the Navy Marine Corps Internet. Cole said he was looking into the cause. When members tried to go to FoxNews.com, the following message appeared: "Access to this site has been denied in accordance with Navy policy to safeguard the security posture and/or to maintain the operational integrity of the NMCI."
