The network said on Tuesday that it had decided not to renew Mr. Moran’s contract. He had worked at ABC News for 28 years.
“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,” a network spokesman said in a statement. “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.”

Mr. Moran’s contract is set to expire on Friday, according to a person with knowledge of his deal who requested anonymity to disclose sensitive details.
Mr. Moran, a senior national correspondent, held many roles at ABC News. In April, he received praise for an interview he conducted with Mr. Trump in the Oval Office, and he led the network’s recent coverage of the papal conclave in Rome.
The network suspended him on Sunday, hours after he posted a late-night message on X in which he described Mr. Miller as “a man who is richly endowed with the capacity for hatred.”

The post was later deleted, but screenshots circulated on social media. Allies of Mr. Trump immediately pounced on Mr. Moran’s remarks, with Vice President JD Vance calling the post an “absolutely vile smear.”
Mr. Moran could not be immediately reached for comment.
