ABC Reporter Suspended After Anti-Trump Tirade: A History of Criticism

ABC News journalist Terry Moran faced suspension after a social media post criticizing Donald Trump went viral. The post, since deleted, called Trump a "world-class hater." However, Fox News has compiled evidence suggesting Moran's anti-Trump sentiment dates back to 2017, citing several past instances of critical commentary. One example is Moran's 2017 remark about Trump's inauguration speech: "The words carry ugly echoes in our history." In 2018, Moran mocked the idea of Trump's funeral arrangements. Fox News' video also includes a quote from Moran's deleted 2025 post: "Trump is a world-class hater. But his hatred only is a means to an end, and that end is his own glorification." The controversy highlights the ongoing debate about media bias and political commentary. The suspension itself raises questions about journalistic ethics and the boundaries of acceptable criticism in the digital age.
