Exposing the true face of lamestream media bias, an “unhinged” anti-Trump social media tirade has forced the hand of ABC News to punish one of its top reporters.
Specifically, the network has suspended veteran correspondent Terry Moran for unleashing personal attacks against President Donald Trump and senior advisor Stephen Miller.
The suspension came after Moran’s inflammatory post on X claimed the president uses hatred for “personal glorification” and suggested Miller “sustains himself” on hatred.
The reporter went even as far as to call both men “world-class haters,” prompting ABC News to quickly remove Moran from his position, citing violations of their standards for objectivity.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt condemned Moran’s remarks as “unhinged and unacceptable,” highlighting the ongoing battle between the administration and hostile media outlets.
“I think this speaks to the distrust that the American public have in the legacy media,” she continued. “We have reached out to ABC to inquire about how they plan to hold Terry accountable.”
The incident reinforces what Trump supporters have long suspected: behind a guise of objectivity, many mainstream journalists harbor deep personal animosity toward the president and his team.
“The most important fact about Terry’s full public meltdown is what it shows about the corporate press in America,” Miller stated.
“For decades, the privileged anchors and reporters narrating and gatekeeping our society have been radicals adopting a journalist’s pose. Terry pulled off his mask,” he added.

Vice President JD Vance jumped to Miller’s defense, rejecting the correspondent’s characterization and demanding an apology from ABC News.
“As it happens, I know Stephen quite well. And he’s motivated by love of country. He’s motivated by a fear that people like Terry Moran make rules that normal Americans have to follow, but well connected people don’t,” Vance declared.
“It’s dripping with hatred. Remember that every time you watch ABC’s coverage of the Trump administration,” Vance further said.
ABC News released a statement acknowledging that Moran’s actions violated its journalistic standards:
“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.”
The timing of this incident is particularly telling given ABC’s recent legal troubles with the Trump administration.
The network previously paid $15 million to a Trump foundation following a defamation case, part of a pattern that includes President Trump’s $20 billion lawsuit against CBS.
These legal battles highlight the ongoing war between President Trump and media outlets determined to undermine his administration.
For conservatives, Moran’s suspension represents a rare moment of accountability in an industry that routinely allows anti-Trump sentiment to pose as objective journalism.
