Moran unleashed a scathing review of White House advisor Stephen Miller, who Moran suggested “eats his own hate.” In his since-deleted message on social media, the longtime reporter made it clear he believes Miller creates policy out of spite and hatred.
“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,” the ABC News reporter 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.”
Moran deleted the post, but not before screenshots of it resurfaced on X – formerly Twitter – leading to a statement from the network. ABC News announced it suspended Moran for an indefinite amount of time for violating the company’s standards on impartiality and objectivity.
“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,” a spokesperson said in a statement to the New York Post on Sunday.
His comments about Miller came as tensions boiled over in Los Angeles, where hundreds of protesters attempted to derail Border Patrol apprehensions near Paramount, California, resulting in the deployment of the national guard.
