ABC News cuts ties with Terry Moran after Trump 'hater' post

Source: The Hill

ABC News says it will not renew the contract of veteran journalist Terry Moran after he authored a social media post sharply criticizing President Trump and top White House aide Stephen Miller.

“We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post – which was a clear violation of ABC News policies – we have made the decision to not renew,” a spokesperson for the network told The Hill on Tuesday.

“At ABC News, we hold all of our reporters to the highest standards of objectivity, fairness and professionalism, and we remain committed to delivering straightforward, trusted journalism,” the spokesperson added.

Moran was suspended by the network over the weekend for his post on the social platform X in which he called Miller a “world-class hater” and said “you can see this just by looking at him because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate.”

In the since-deleted post, Moran also criticized the president, saying he too is “a world-class hater” and adding that “his hatred only a means to an end, and that end [is] his own glorification. That’s his spiritual nourishment.”

Not to mention, boycotts-- and ratings do matter.

But, hey. Gotta ignore the truth and satisfy the dictator.

Trump and Stephen Miller are bad people and antithetical to the core values of America
and those FACTS should not be hidden or not talked about because that is part of
fascism. You know when an authoritarian government works with businesses and other
entities to try to control the population and shape people’s thoughts.

“Fascism, an ultranationalist, authoritarian ideology, prioritizes the nation above all else, emphasizing strong, centralized leadership, militarism, and the suppression of dissent. Key principles include a rejection of democracy, liberalism, and socialism, along with a belief in a natural social hierarchy and the subordination of individual interests to the perceived needs of the nation or race. Fascism often involves the use of propaganda, intimidation, and violence to maintain power and promote its goals.”
