He’s out…
ABC News has reportedly suspended senior national correspondent Terry Moran over a deleted X post in which he called White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller a “world class hater.”
According to CNN’s Brian Stelter, ABC News said Sunday that Moran has been “suspended pending further evaluation” following his post.
“The thing about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism,” Moran wrote in the deleted post. “Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualizes the impulses of the Trumpist 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. Trump 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.”
In its full statement obtained by Stelter, ABC News said Moran’s post was a violation of standards.
“ABC News stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others,” the network said. “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.”
The White House immediately denounced the comments — with Vice President JD Vance calling them an “absolutely vile smear.
