ABC News said Tuesday it is cutting ties with star national correspondent Terry Moran over a social media post that called President Donald Trump and top White House advisor Stephen Miller “world-class” haters.
Moran had already been suspended over the post on X over the weekend, which he had deleted, but which had also drawn fire from Trump administration officials. He had spent 28 years at the network.
“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,” an ABC News spokesperson said in a statement to CNBC.
“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 said.
CNBC has requested comment from Moran and the White House.
