Trump needs to be 'stopped' before he seizes news outlets and sells them to cronies, fired ABC journalist says
Terry Moran drew parallels between US media landscape under Trump and authoritarian countries like Russia

Former ABC News correspondent Terry Moran worried Tuesday that the U.S. will soon lose its free press if President Donald Trump is not "stopped."

Moran, who was fired in June from the network where he worked for almost 28 years after posting a scathing social media rant against Trump and White House aide Stephen Miller, discussed the state of the media with former MSNBC host Chris Matthews on Substack.

Lamenting the recent CBS/Paramount settlement with Trump, and other media shakeups, Matthews worried about the implications of media outlets caving to the president’s demands.

"Is this going to keep going?" Matthews asked. "Or is he going to keep going from network to network, to newspaper to newspaper?… Are they willing to be what they’ve been or are they just going to keep groveling?"

Moran made a bold prediction that there will be no independent news in the U.S. because media organizations will have their power stripped from them by the current administration.

The media is over-consolidated and needs old fashioned Trust-Busting to restore local ownership of media outlets.

The danger of corporate media is that it drowns-out new and divergent voices.

It's is the conflict and intersection of opposite forces that creates energy.

And that's exactly why he's out of a job.

News is supposed to be reality based. He and others like him live in a world untethered from reality.

The hysteria is almost amusing.
