Transgender reporter Zoey Tur took to Twitter on Thursday to trash the conservative news site “Breitbart.com" and its editor-in-chief, Benjamin Shapiro.
 
Tweeting out an article from “The Washington Blade” about how Islamic State militants have executed nine men for sodomy, Tur said that the news “should make the homophobes at Breitbart happy.” 
 
 
Tur’s tweet comes a month after getting into a heated discussion on a TV panel with Shapiro back in July over whether Bruce Jenner deserved to be awarded the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the ESPYs. 
 
 
During the live broadcast of the panel on HLN’s "Dr. Drew on Call," Tur placed a hand on Shapiro’s neck and threatened to send him “home in an ambulance” for calling Tur, "Sir," and for arguing that a person whose biology is male is in fact a male person. 
 
Tur doubled down on the threat the following day by saying he would like to “curb stomp” the Breitbart editor.
