ABC News suspended senior national correspondent Terry Moran on Sunday, June 8 after he called White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller a “world-class hater” in a post on X, formerly Twitter, that was later deleted.
“ABC News stands for objectivity and impartiality in its news coverage and does not condone subjective personal attacks on others,” an ABC News spokesperson said in a statement shared with several media outlets. “ does not reflect the views of ABC News and violated our standards — as a result, Terry Moran has been suspended pending further evaluation.”

Moran’s post went up just after midnight, early Sunday and was later deleted.
“The thig about Stephen Miller is not that he is the brains behind Trumpism,” Moran wrote. “Yes, he is one of the people who conceptualized the impulses of the Trumpist movement and translate them into policy.”
“It’s not brains. It’s bile,” he added. “Miller is a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred. He's a world-class hater.”
ABC’s move to suspend Moran came after White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt suggested the network take action against the veteran journalist. “We have reached out to ABC to inquire about how they plan to hold Terry accountable,” she wrote on X.
Leavitt pushed further in an interview on Sunday Morning Futures on Fox News, saying, “Hopefully this journalist will either be suspended or terminated.”
