Terry Moran, a reporter for ABC News, has been banned indefinitely for an online post in which he referred to Stephen Miller, the deputy chief of staff for the Trump administration, as a “world class hater.” The article has since been deleted.
Members of the Republican administration, notably Vice President J.D. Vance, wasted little time in denouncing Moran’s article. “Stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others,” ABC News stated in a statement.
Moran was placed on indefinite suspension by the New York-based network, according to their statement.
In his Sunday post on X at 12:06 a.m., Moran—who had already interviewed Trump a few weeks prior—also said that the president was a world-class hater. However, he documented that the president’s animosity has a purpose, “and that end is his own glorification.”
According to Miller, “his hatreds are his spiritual nourishment” (Moran’s post). His animosity against him is like food for him.
Vance said on X that Moran’s article exhibited an overwhelming amount of animosity. “Keep that in mind whenever you tune in to ABC News’ coverage of the Trump administration,” the VP tweeted.
Miller pointed the finger at the corporate press during Moran’s “full public meltdown” on X. Those fortunate enough to serve as newscasters and reporters have been radicals masquerading as journalists for decades. Terry removed his face mask.
