ABC News on Tuesday announced that it has decided not to renew its contract with suspended anchor Terry Moran after he made a controversial anti-Trump social media post that has since been deleted.

The network suspended Moran on Sunday while an investigation was conducted and claimed the post did not meet its journalistic standards. The post was met with heavy backlash by the White House and Vice President JD Vance.

Moran had called President Donald Trump and his adviser Stephen Miller "world-class haters" in the post.

ABC News said the network was already at the end of its contract with Moran and had opted not to renew it in light of the social media post. 

"At ABC News, we hold all of our reporters to the highest standards of objectivity, fairness and professionalism, and we remain committed to delivering straightforward, trusted journalism," the network added, according to Deadline.

Moran worked as the senior national correspondent for ABC News, and had been part of the network since 1997.
