Joe Concha: You Could Make a Good Argument That ABC’s Terry Moran Should Be Fired After His Trump Admin-Bashing Comments

‘That was a screed like you would read on the X feed of Keith Olbermann or George Conway’

EXCERPT:

CONCHA: "You could make a good argument that Terry Moran should not be suspended, he should be fired after a screed like that. Because remember, this isn’t some MSNBC or CNN opinion person, talking head. This isn’t somebody on 'The View' or podcaster who's supposed to have strong, provocative opinions. His title literally is 'senior national correspondent for ABC News.' That means he is there to report, he's there to follow the facts, he's there to be objective without fear or favor to party. Instead, that was a screed like you would read on the X feed of Keith Olbermann or George Conway. And here’s the thing — and this is a rhetorical question, obviously — could you imagine, because ABC News has had some journalistic heavyweights over the years, whether we're talking about Ted Koppel or Peter Jennings or David Brinkley, could you ever imagine them ever saying this about an administration official? It’s 31 flavors of insanity. Quite frankly, he is lucky that he wasn’t fired because they just lost a lawsuit, Sandra, to Donald Trump for misreporting things. And now for him to do this, ABC's reputation, they might as well be MSNBC  at this point."
