ABC News correspondent's long history of vicious Trump attacks dates back years | Fox News

ABC News correspondent Terry Moran was suspended Sunday after writing a social media post that harshly criticized an official in President Donald Trυmp’s administration.

The subject of Moran’s since-deleted X post was Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller.

“The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trυmpism,” he wrote. “Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trυmpist movement and translates them into policy. But that’s not what’s interesting about Miller. It’s not brains. It’s bile. Miller is a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He’s a world-class hater. You can see this just by looking at him because you can see that his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment. He eats his hate. Trυmp is a world-class hater. But his hatred only a means to an end, and that end his his own glorification. That’s his spiritual nourishment.”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt and Vice President JD Vance both posted about Moran Sunday, calling for ABC News to “hold Terry accountable.”

In a statement to TVLine, an ABC News spokesperson said: “ABC News stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others. The post does not reflect the views of ABC News and violated our standards — as a result, Terry Moran has been suspended pending further evaluation.”

 

Moran, who joined ABC in 1997, is the network’s senior national correspondent and an anchor for the ABC News Live streaming service. He also leads ABC’s coverage of the Supreme Court. He recently interviewed Trυmp in the White House, a sit-down conversation that was at times heated. (You can watch the interview in full below.)
