Terry Moran, my husband and I would love to see you on MTN! We watched you for years on ABC. We have had to give up all three networks because they are all caving to Trump. We found MTN and have been so happy. We want to tell you that you’re one of the great journalists.
ABC will not be the same without you. They lost a genuine soul when they let you go! Join Meidas! And report to the American people what is really going on.
Oh for heaven's sake. Terry Moran deserves merit based on his standing as a journalist, not for his gender. Diversity coupled with meritocracy is a great thing, but shutting out rich white guys just because they are rich white guys? That's retribution and it is counter-productive.
He's the one that put dumpfon the spot on tv about the MS_!# fake tattoo. He did not let it slide and kept prodding dumpf for the correct answer. And of course that never happened. We need all the help we can get to get the truth out about all this crap.
Oh I understand it and I also support diversity. But this discussion centres on the fact that it is misguided to deny someone of merit consideration based on their gender, or the sins of their gender. I get the point, but it is the wrong point in this discussion.
Terry Moran has distinguished himself as an independent journalist, and might do best to capitalize on that just as Jim Acosta, Don Lemon and Joy Reid have done!
Joe Rogan, the footsteps you hear are those of Terry Moran!
I support him but if mT can’t expand beyond white men, it will hit a wall. Saying this as a paid subscriber. I thought for a minute Joy Reid should join, but for forever reason, thst didn’t happen
I don't think all rich white men should be lumped together. I think there are some very good people that are rich, white, men. I don't think we should ever lump a group of people together as if they are all the same.
Isn’t this what we’re fighting against. Racism and discrimination. Just because the guy’s white and has money doesn’t exclude him from the truth seeking population. He called out Trump in an interview recently with him. Terry Moran wouldn’t budge when Trump kept telling him to say what he wanted him to say. He stood his ground. This is where, I believe, the first thought of retaliation came to Trump’s mind. I’m for anyone who calls out Trump and seeks truth.
Dear white people: Can you stop being so defensive? Public Servant said "Meidas Touch needs more diversity." S/he's right. No one's criticizing Terry Moran's credentials -- but if you don't get that white defensiveness helped get the U.S. into the mess it's in, you need to pay more attention. Thank you.
P.S. I'm white. I started paying close attention in April 1968, when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated and I was only dimly aware of why he was so important. I was not quite 17 at the time.
Again, discrimination on any basis is a problem. The topic here is a specific journalist whose excellence merits him attention. That is a separate issue from the need for diversity. You are conflating the positive of diversity with Terry Moran's being targeted by Trump, being fired as a result by his employer, and then being encouraged to join MTN.
Like so many white USians, you're not getting it. Discrimination by those in power is far more important than discrimination by those who aren't in power (which might sensibly be called "self-defense"). This should be obvious, with white Christians claiming that they're being discriminated against. What they're complaining about is that they're being deprived of the privilege to which they consider themselves entitled. If this is not obvious to you, please read a little more U.S. history.
Just for the record, not a USian. I do get it. The problem here is you are commenting on related but different issues, not whether Terry Moran should be vilified for being a white, older man, in spite of his impressive journalistic credentials, because other older, white men have behaved badly.
First of all, should I be thanking you for stepping up to set us "white people" posters straight? I'm not sure if I want you to represent me. Include a photo,an essay and something about what you've done in your life with our mutually shared white privilege. Oh, also make certain to tell me where you grew up and where you live, and your ethnicity, and religion affiliation or spiritual or not spiritual belief. And are you single, married, divorced, have children? Are you LGBTq2a. Just a sentence or two about each will do. Are you Pro-Choice, and for gun control?. Do you believe in gender dysphoria? And what's your favorite book? Have you traveled internationally?
Another thing. Perhaps Public Servant doesn't need or appreciate you speaking to "us" white people--actually, no reason to assume that Public Servant isn't one of "us", is there now? That just occurred to me! Hmm... I bought into your assumption (?) seemingly.
Onto Public Servant's post!
The second half of Public Servant's sentence: "rich white men are already destroying the country" is an opinion. A judgment. Nothing wrong about that, although, it does give a "slant" shall we say, to the section you quoted:. "Meidas+ Touch needs more diversity..." I mention that because you obviously missed that.
Have you heard of the psychological term "projection?" I didn't sense any defensiveness in the responses I read--albeit I read from newest post down--so perhaps I'll encounter a "self-identified"white person who sounds defensive after I post this.
Of course everything I've said is my subjective take, specifically my take on you. So, sadly, Susanna, you don't have permission to be this " Jewish, Boomer woman, born and bred NYer, mostly lived on the West Coast, retired teacher, and writer's spokeswoman. I'm sure others might be proud to have you speak for them. Well, not really. I was trying to be polite and uplifting. I'm just not very good at pretense. But after another day of Trump insanity, I felt the urge to have a little "creative" fun composing this response rather than allowing myself to be triggered by it.
Sorry if no one else was amused!I just reread it, and I was amused. Lol!
OK, but nobody NEEDS more diversity, not if they have to search for the right combination of attributes. Diversity mean NOT excluding people for their attributes.
Listen up...Public Dis-Service...uncool comment.........There are a good number of women doing work on MTN.......Joy Reid has her own YOUTUBE channel now.....
There's so many of them, every day. I wish the comments were closed to paid subscribers only. Many Substacks are. Keeps out maga. Let them read, that's all.
Got off the rails with that rich w/m bs, but getting back to the ASK/request on your terms; the MTN wouldn’t be a bad jumping off point for you if you were to consider onboarding. They’re really becoming heavy hitters. Your brand of speaking truth in journalism would be the CHEF’S KISS to this Meidas team!! Who knows, Jordy may design you your own business merch!!!
Yep. Look what's happening re the legal firms who have capitulated. They are losing clients and also some of their attorneys). Guess where the clients (& probably attorneys) are going? Yep = to the firms that have NOT capitulated.
It's odd that ABC thinks that actions like this are how to improve what they are doing...and yes, it's a cowardly action, and they are probably only thinking about
'getting along' - but in this environment it's only by being in lockstep that someone
looks like they are getting along...like lemmings toward a cliff.
Darned tootin’! WTF with ABC letting this shining diamond out in the wild?!? Terry needs to get with Midas and reveal ALL the truths! He’s a terrific guy🙌🏼
Terry Moran emulated Edward Morrow…without concern for his career. He stood up, did not lie, fabricate alternative facts, over state what the real situation was!
Susan, Trump has been seizing power incrementally; because he has gotten away with his criminality, he is emboldened. I would not be surprised if he pressured Bob Iger to can Kimmel, he would. We’ll see. I agree that Jimmy Kimmel is a powerhouse; his comedy is spot on. Will that matter? Hard to say.
I think that the pocketbook will talk. Don't know that the comedy alone would be enough but 20 million pizzed off viewers? Pretty sure the folks that pay for ads would not be happy either. I'll bet on Jimmy!
Could be. Another possibility is Jimmy ending the show on his own. He has speculated that he may not sign a new contract in 2026. Time will tell. He just became a grandfather. He’s 57 years old. I could see him moving on. I hope not, btw.
I must have missed that show. One I saw he said something like he might retire in a few years. I would really miss him; but, hey a grandkid, that's something to quit for. I now consider 57 as young LOL
If he decides to retire I do believe it will be on his own terms, not dictated by the dictatot. Dictatot was a misspelling; but, I like it. :-)
This is the real reason MAGA fears Meidas Touch. All the journalists they have tried to silence are joining MTN. When they were scattered voices at different stations, they were easier to silence. But together, they are a force to be reckoned with.
TERRY MORAN FOR MEIDASTOUCH!
Terry Moran, my husband and I would love to see you on MTN! We watched you for years on ABC. We have had to give up all three networks because they are all caving to Trump. We found MTN and have been so happy. We want to tell you that you’re one of the great journalists.

Spammer, go away!
True courage doesn’t rely on others for motivation; it is self-renewing.
Meidas Touch needs more diversity, rich white men are already destroying the country. Katie Phang is fantastic. AOC/Crockett 2028! https://democracydefender2025.substack.com/p/aoc-crockett-2028

Would, should, didn’t.
I don’t care about your color I just want the truth.
Exactly!
100%!
I don't think all rich white men should be lumped together. I think there are some very good people that are rich, white, men. I don't think we should ever lump a group of people together as if they are all the same.
yeah that's what maga does! Don't be like a magat, be all inclusive! AMERICA-E Pluribus Unum=Out of many, ONE!
Exactly! And they should'nt be, just like we don't want to lumped together! As a poc, I love and respect Mark Cuban! I'm sure he's not alone!

Absolutely. Just waited for the right excuse.
I don’t lump him with rich white men. I respect his journalist skills and experience in his reporting. I would love to see him here!
I agree!
He worked hard for his money for a very long time. Good grief, let’s not go there! We have much bigger fish to fry!

Terry Moran isn't destroying the country! He's trying to alert viewers to the fact that Trump is looking to destroy the country.
I really like Katie Phang's style of journalism, and have subscribed to her YouTube.
I also think Terry Moran would be an excellent addition to the MTN.
Listen up...Public Dis-Service...uncool comment.........There are a good number of women doing work on MTN.......Joy Reid has her own YOUTUBE channel now.....
Except for blue, truth doesn't have any color preference.

Yes, reported as such. If you didn't report, please tap the 3 dots and hit report. I filled in the box with SPAM
Yes, I reported. I hope it worked.

Yes, there are. And I report them. They just multiply.
YES YES YES 🙌🏻

Spectacular message! I hope he joins you.
Joins US!
I agree. Terry Moran is a great journalist. I always look forward to reading his articles. ‘Hope you consider joining the Meidas Touch Terry!
Us. Join us. We are all together.
Terry Moran is one of the best journalist around! I always find him unbiased and very reliable. ABC is a COWARD! What a loss for them!
Corporate media is biting off their noses to spite their faces! 🇨🇦💪☮️
Yep. Look what's happening re the legal firms who have capitulated. They are losing clients and also some of their attorneys). Guess where the clients (& probably attorneys) are going? Yep = to the firms that have NOT capitulated.
Let's boycott them. Mostly trash on now these days anyway.
I sent them an email when they suspended him.
news.tips@abc.com
Good idea. Thanks.
After I typed that, I went in and sent them another for firing him! This household is done with ABC!
It's odd that ABC thinks that actions like this are how to improve what they are doing...and yes, it's a cowardly action, and they are probably only thinking about
'getting along' - but in this environment it's only by being in lockstep that someone
looks like they are getting along...like lemmings toward a cliff.
More likely about sponsors, just guess
Darned tootin’! WTF with ABC letting this shining diamond out in the wild?!? Terry needs to get with Midas and reveal ALL the truths! He’s a terrific guy🙌🏼
🏆
Love this! Terry Moran didn’t bow to Trump like his company did. They don’t deserve you!
Terry Moran emulated Edward Morrow…without concern for his career. He stood up, did not lie, fabricate alternative facts, over state what the real situation was!
Go Meidas!!
Come on over Terry!
Terry join this team. You will be appreciated and supported by millions of like minded folks.
Supporting Terry heading over to Meidas Touch ASAP
That would be an amazing collab. 💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸✊🏽✊🏽
Just saw this on my local ABC News app…. Good for you Terry! Speaking truth!!
Another fucking capitulation from Disney. We won’t forget. Who’s next? Jimmy Kimmel?
They tried to get Jimmy once, i.e., told him to lay off Trump. Jimmy said NO and he is still there.
With 20 million followers they'd be pretty stupid to mess with him. He's another one that doesn't seem to be afraid of anyone, including trump.
Susan, Trump has been seizing power incrementally; because he has gotten away with his criminality, he is emboldened. I would not be surprised if he pressured Bob Iger to can Kimmel, he would. We’ll see. I agree that Jimmy Kimmel is a powerhouse; his comedy is spot on. Will that matter? Hard to say.

If he decides to retire I do believe it will be on his own terms, not dictated by the dictatot. Dictatot was a misspelling; but, I like it. :-)
Oh to be 57 again, Rachel. I have a source for you about Kimmel.
https://screenrant.com/is-jimmy-kimmel-retiring-late-night-talk-show-explained/
TY, If he does retire maybe Meidas can get him to start a substack and bring his 20 million with him.
My son recently turned 50 and was claiming that he was slowing down. I told him to just wait until he's 78 and then he'll have a reason to complain.
This is a shame you are a good reporter and report honestly. Trump can’t handle the truth. He wants people to lie . Just like him. What a disgrace
He’s a true professional!!
This is the real reason MAGA fears Meidas Touch. All the journalists they have tried to silence are joining MTN. When they were scattered voices at different stations, they were easier to silence. But together, they are a force to be reckoned with.
We ADORE you Terry!! Join us!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
