    ABC is finally demonstrating a return to responsible journalism. Their actions with their employee are very appropriate, suspension while conducting an investigation.

  2. Moran told the absolute truth and gets suspended indefinitely but Scump can lie continuously with no repercussions.
    Looks like Iger has been bitten by the maga bug,
    slowly turning into another weak, spineless jellyfish of a man, afraid of theRump like so many others!

      Don’t like our president, liberal? Feel free to leave. You’re probably one of the ones who would willingly spit on the American flag after setting fire to it and throw bricks at policemen.

      1. John Grigsby

        No sweetheart, it wasn’t we Democrats that stormed the capitol building after outr candidate lost, smearing shit on the walls, and threatening to hand the vice president for doing his solemn duty. That would be you Mango Mussolini-worshipping MAGAts.

        You would feel right at home in North Korea

        1. RG

          Trump loves North Korea. Ask him, he’s said so plenty. He’s endlessly infatuated with how everyone snaps to attention and obeys Kim Jong-un, just like it should be for him in America! Wait what? Gee, isn’t just the idea of that treason?

      3. J A Johnson

        Hey Anne, you’re an idiot. Can’t stand to hear the truth about your cult leader? Or you don’t know the truth when you hear it?

      4. JN

        If you are voted, like or are complicit with Trump’s regime, you are showing your true colors. You are a racist, sexist, and/or a homophobic.

        The wool on your eyes has blinded you to the truth
        Hatered breeds Hate and this is what MAGA stands for Hate, anyone who believes in the Constitution of the UNITED states. Who believes, millions of Military personal and ordinary people have died upholding The Constitution, of the UNITED states. Who would gladly do it again to PROTECT our FREEDOMS that Hate continues to break down.
        I for one and hundreds of Millions of others Stand for the TRUTH and abolish Hate from the conversation
        Get to a sheep shearer, have the wool removed from your eyes
        You will see clearly again

        By the Way, the building I was talking about is a PUBLIC Library

    2. D

      Exactly 💯

    Mr. Moran has the ‘Constitutional Right’ to speak his mind and his own thoughts. He didn’t write the post on ABC’s dime. Trump does ‘hate’ many things and many people. If he and his cronies can spout how they feel, why can’t the rest of us?

    1. Anne

      So it’s ok for you libs to hate but when we good people are trying to take a stand it hurts your poor wittle feelings?

      1. Frank

        Biden never threatened anyone`s job if he didn`t like the truth about him .Taco Don had his little feelings hurt . What was that you said about people`s feelings ?

        1. RG

          Yeah, anyone who dares speak out against Trump, should go to jail! That’s how it should work! Just like in North korea! They do things the right way, and that’s what America should be! 🙄 even though believing such is the definition of being a traitor to the United States of America and everything it stands for, pay no attention to that, TRUMP! TRUMP! TRUMP! MAGA!!!! 🥴

        There is a building, in every town in America Anne, you need to visit. There are many sections in this building, you need to visit. There are many things in this building, you need to look at and if you have the ability, read.
        First go to the section called reference. Here, is where you will find a copy of The Declaration of Independence and The Constitution of the UNITED States.
        You cannot remove these 2 things from this building but, if you have the ability to read, you can maybe learn something from these 2 Major Chapters concerning AMERICA.
        Next, travel to the Non-fiction section, read about what happened throughout history to those who turned their blinded eyes towards tyranny and how did they fare in the end
        Freedoms were abolished for all people not just the ones they were deemed dangerous.

        You do realize that Democrats don’t hate Trump supporters, right? That’s what Trump feeds his followers, as he turns around and claims anyone who questions him should be jailed. Any reporter who dares fact check him, or say anything critical to him, which is sort of their job, should be banned from the White House, fired, and oh yeah, jailed as well. That’s what Democrats hate, the fact that Trump actually wants to run this country like North korea, and he wants to be Kim Jong-un. He’s actually said this. The only hate seems to come from Trump and his supporters, calling everyone clowns, making up infantile insulting nicknames for everyone, literally acting like a school bully constantly. Are Democrats doing this? Not on a large scale. Trump is in about unity, he’s only about only doing things for people who do things for him in return. Gee, you know, the definition of quid pro quo. The thing he keeps saying he never does. Why? Because he doesn’t even know what it means. I’m serious. He literally does quid pro quo, and then says at the end, the words, “no quid pro quo!” Like it magically makes it not quid pro quo because he said those words? This can’t be for real. 🤣 anyway, I honestly don’t know anyone who hates Trump supporters or Trump. That’s what he wants everyone to think, apparently. Nice scam. Easy way to stop your followers from listening to people trying to talk sense to them, hurry up and just label them haters, and “don’t listen to them! Don’t listen to those haters! 🙄” 😩

      Dear D and Aloha, it’s fine, just go take your happy meds.

    3. Susan Mayer

      You hit the nail on the head!

    Fun fact: Liberals love to claim conservatives are hateful. But is it Trump supports causing violence in LA by burning the American flag and trying to kill policemen? Liberals preach to love everyone but sure as heck don’t practice it. Their version of “love” is: “love thy neighbor *only* if they hate Trump and if they’re a Trump supporter then be as hateful to them as you possibly can even if you resort to violence”.

    1. Carter

      I know, right! Libs be like, “love only those who think like yourself”.

    2. Frank

      We experienced the love of maga during the 2020 election . Things like how they tried to kill Biden campaign staff by running them off the road . Or standing around polling places with guns to intimidate voters . Or how they drive around with Chinese made flags with sayings like ” Let`s go Brandon ” . Or how about how they made fun of Kamal`s laugh ? Yes true love and respect for people who don`t bow down to trump .

    3. J A J

      You’re hilarious! Again, it wasn’t liberals that participated in the insurrection. Because if it has been trump would never had pardoned them.

    4. RG

      Where do you get any of this from? I don’t know any liberal who hates Trump supporters, nor Trump. And I don’t think 90% of trump supporters are hateful, aside from the ones who love to use terms like “libtards”, which is insulting on numerous levels that have nothing to do with politics. Sort of telling, anyone that would use a term like that, what they think of mentally challenged people. But I digress. I say 98% of liberals absolutely do not hate Trump supporters at all, they are just endlessly frustrated about how misinformed and gullible they are to someone who constantly lies to them, and they keep believing it, no matter what. Like loyalty to a cult leader. It’s mind-boggling. There’s no hate to it at all, though. That’s yet another ploy Trump tries to get his followers to believe. He makes up bullying nicknames for people, says they aren’t real americans, says they should go to jail for questioning him, and then says *they* are the haters? 🙄 Umm.
      About the very isolated few incidents of rioting, nobody supports that. People breaking store windows and stealing things, these people are disgusting thugs. I don’t know any Democrat aligning with them. The problem is, Trump and the media he influences keeps running the same footage over and over and making it look like it’s happening all over, in the whole city is burning or some nonsense. I think there were two or three isolated incidences that were quickly stopped. They keep using the same footage and making it look like the whole city was going crazy, and Trump came into save the day or some nonsense. Nothing was even happening. The National Guard went in and started picking up and dragging away peaceful protesters just sitting there. Doing nothing. Just sitting? Really? Because there were no riots or rioters really happening. There were a few isolated incidences done by moronic thugs that nobody supports, that were hijacking the real protests, those people weren’t protesting anything, they were criminals taking advantage of it. As for the actual protests, Trump is trying to prod and poke them until it gets violent like he wants it to be, basically. He can’t accept that hundreds of thousands of people could really be against him, and even tries to say they are fake, or paid actors, by, oh yeah, George Soros! Lol. Why not? When in reality, most of the protesters currently are actually Latino people who voted for him! Because they noticed that ICE wasn’t going after Thugs and criminals and Drug dealers, but grandmothers, hard-working tax paying Farm Workers, little children, because, well, there were no violent gang members are drug dealers. Maybe a few? If that. That was hyperbole. I mean, think of it. Why in the hell would drug dealers and criminals come all the way to america, where is a thousand times harder to get away with the crimes they want to commit then it would be if they just stayed in Mexico? 🤣 I mean, duh? But people bought it. And now they are pissed, seeing who ICE is actually rounding up. Even immigrants that are doing the absolute right thing and going to court, trying to become legal! ICE is standing outside the courtrooms ready to grab them? On Trump’s order? Well, that’s disgusting. And immoral. And illegal. But Trump don’t care! Any judge telling Trump he can’t do it, he will just try to put THEM in jail! Yes, folks, we are living in North Korea now. Pretty much. How is that patriotic? You see the problem now?

  5. Carter

    Didn’t take long for the lefties to show up and start bashing again.

    1. Frank

      Doesn`t take long for maga to start licking the boots of a person who wouldn`t care if you died at the gates of mar a lardo .

    2. RG

      Disagreeing is bashing? Oh right, Trump actually thinks so. So nobody else is allowed to have any opinion unless it alliance with trump’s? Or else they are “bashing”? 🙄

  6. Jessica

    The only “World Class Haters” are the Democrats. You don’t see any Republicans in the California riots. I’m for Trump and would NEVER burn my countries flag while waving Mexico’s flag, destroy property and harm law officers. Guess I’m a hateful conservative for wanting to live in peace and safety.

    1. John Grigsby

      Funny thing. No police officers have been killed (or even seriously injured), which cannot be said of the demonstrators. The “non-lethal” ammunition used by the police forces and military has been inflicting several significant injuries. Also, in the attack on the Capitol building, Republicans did injure and even kill officers, tore down flags, and threatened the Vice President with death. Peaceful, eh?

    2. Frank

      i don`t mind someone waving a Mexican Flag as much as someone waving a trump flag and attacking our country to make him king .

    3. RG

      Democrats don’t align with any rioters. That’s Trump telling you this, and you believe it. Those are criminals trying to hijack a protest, to commit crimes. That’s not protesting, that’s being a thug. I actually wouldn’t be surprised if they were Trump supporters paid by Trump to do that, so that he could look like a hero to stop it. Truth is, there were literally two or three small isolated incidences that were quickly got under control. The city wasn’t burning. Nobody was even rioting anymore. It was the same footage being circulated and run over and over again. When the National Guard arrived, there were no riots. They had nothing to do except maybe sit in front of buildings pretending to protect them from non-existent rioters. And dragging a few peaceful protesters away that were just sitting down somewhere. It’s beyond silliness. Instead of believing what conservative media and Trump circulates, go there in person yourself or look at unbiased sources to see the truth. And no Democrat supports riots or rioters, those people have nothing to do with any cause, they are Thugs and criminals, and should go to jail. The handful of them that they’re actually were.

    Terry Moran watched George Clooney’s play and thought he would be Edward R. Murroe with that post. He forgot that the network is not run by Mr. Paley anymore!

    1. J A J

      Edward R Murrow

  8. John Grigsby

    Mr. Moran is certainly entitled to his opinion, but it must be remembered that ABC is a corporation, and in this age of social media, corporations closely monitor the accounts of their employees. Stating your opinion can be hazardous to your career. I happen to agree with him, but I can also see ABC’s side. They are supposed to be above political bias.

    1. RG

      Depends if it was his personal account or not. He still is an American citizen and has a right to express his view, which in this case was more of an analysis of psychological motives, which journalists do all the time, rather than any political view. What he posted didn’t look politically biased, it was more of an individual analysis of a few people.
