Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attacked Jennifer Griffin, his former colleague at Fox News and a longtime member of the Pentagon press corps amid a broader push to discredit media outlets over reporting on intelligence laying out the extent of damages done by U.S. strikes to Iranian nuclear sites.

"Do you have certainty that all the highly enriched uranium was inside the Fordo mountain?" Griffin asked Hegseth during a contentious press conference early Thursday morning.
