[See NewsBusters for more.] ABC News journalist Terry Moran has discovered judicial activism. Minutes after the overturning of Roe v. Wade on Friday, he derided conservative “judges in politicians’ robes.” Just in time for a ruling the left hates, Moran declared the era of the Supreme Court being “legitimate” is now over. Breaking in to live coverage after Roe fell, Moran used swing vote John Roberts as a proxy for his own outrage: “[Roberts] says the Court is too full of certainty on this issue and he would wait for the next case to come. He's lost control of this Court, but it is significant that a justice as conservative as John Roberts is looks at what his conservative colleagues did and says, that's judicial activism.”
