Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin held his first news conference Thursday since he was hospitalized for complications from surgery to treat prostate cancer earlier this month. Austin and the Pentagon received criticism for not immediately disclosing his hospital stay to the White House and the public. Austin apologized for keeping his hospitalization a secret, adding "I did not handle this right."
