Department of Defense Cuts Government Shutdown PSA

The Department of Defense released a public service announcement Friday stating that “several key media services will be limited” if a government shutdown occurs. 

The DoD’s simple video–prefaced by the word “ATTENTION” flashing in red–says that the Department-provided television, radio, and web services will be “limited” should the government shut down October 1st.  

The video asks the public to visit official Department of Defense sites for more information.
