Terry Moran is out at ABC News. His tweet did what critics of the media wanted. - Poynter
Briefly

ABC News's decision to not renew Terry Moran's contract stems from his controversial tweet labeling Stephen Miller a 'world-class hater.' Moran, a veteran journalist with 28 years at ABC, was suspended after his comments led to criticism from the White House. The network's statement emphasized adherence to journalistic standards of objectivity and fairness, with Moran's termination viewed as a response to pressures regarding media bias. Opinions are divided, with some siding with Moran on free speech grounds, while others criticize the network for not maintaining professional standards.
Moran's tweet, asserting that Stephen Miller 'eats his hate,' faced backlash from the White House, prompting ABC's decision to terminate his contract.
While critics argue that terminating Moran's contract infringes on free speech, supporters view his comments as a legitimate critique of a public figure he reports on.
