(Newsbusters)—In a statement by ABC News’s public relations department and shared with CNN’s Brian Stelter, the Disney-owned liberal network revealed Tuesday they fired longtime correspondent Terry Moran, less than a week after having been suspended for a late-night tweet smearing longtime Donald Trump aide Stephen Miller as “a world-class hater” whose “hatreds are his spiritual nourishment.”
Stelter broke the news right at 5:00 p.m. Eastern:
BREAKING: Terry Moran is out at ABC News. “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 spokesperson says.

Stelter added in a follow-up tweet that ABC also told him “we hold all of our reporters to the highest standards of objectivity, fairness and professionalism, and we remain committed to delivering straightforward, trusted journalism.”
Cue the laugh tracks for the absurdity of that statement. While Moran’s axing is something few could have expected if this had occurred, say, eight years ago, it does nothing to change their reputation of weapons-grade liberal bias.
