Correspondent Terry Moran exits ABC News
Correspondent Terry Moran is out at ABC News, two days after the organization suspended Moran for a social media post that called Trump administration deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller a “world class hater,” reports the Associated Press.
The network said that it was at the end of its contract with Moran “and based on his recent post — which was a clear violation of ABC News policies — we have made the decision not to renew.”
Moran’s post was swiftly condemned by officials in the Republican administration, including Vice President J.D. Vance. ABC News, in a statement, said it “stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others,” and that Moran was suspended pending further evaluation.
Vance, on X, said that Moran’s post was “dripping with hatred.” The vice president wrote: “Remember that every time you watch ABC’s coverage of the Trump administration.”
Miller, on X, said Moran’s “full public meltdown” exposed the corporate press. “For decades, the privileged anchor and reporters narrating and gatekeeping our society have been radicals adopting a journalist’s pose. Terry pulled off his mask.”
