ABC News fired veteran correspondent Terry Moran after his social media rant targeting President Trump adviser Stephen Miller, the company said Tuesday.
Moran was suspended by the Disney-owned network on Sunday, hours after he blasted Miller as a “world class hater.”
“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 told The Post. “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.”
Moran’s diatribe on social media over the weekend, which he has since deleted, had been condemned by ABC News executives for lacking “objectivity and impartiality.”
The Post reported on Monday that ABC News staffers were calling for Moran to be fired.
