 Ginger Zee, the chief meteorologist and weekly weather anchor on Good Morning America, is not afraid to expose and shut down Internet trolls.

On Wednesday, the 33-year-old posted a screenshot of a comment a user had posted on her Facebook page, which displays her own posts by default. The woman told Zee that she looked "ridiculous" in her on-air clothes, adding that it resembles a yoga outfit and was "not appropriate."

The person told her to "take some hints" from GMA lead co-anchor Robin Roberts, who "always dresses with CLASS," and to "get a clothing allowance and HELP!!!"

"Thanks so much for sharing your opinion," Zee replied. "No clothing allowance."

On Wednesday's GMA, Zee had worn a form-fitting, royal blue T-shirt, adorned with a chunky necklace, over black skinny pants and black pumps.

Zee, who often interacts with her fans on both Facebook and Twitter, had also received a slew of positive messages about her fashion choices.

"Haters gonna hate but this is a good way to inspire us all to say something kind to someone else," she wrote on Facebook. "You never know what they are going through."

Her screenshot has been liked more than 7,000 times,

One person wrote in the comments section, "I love that you post these comments... yes you're in the public eye, but twitter, FB and Instagram haters need to relax with the negativity."

"That's just rude," another user said. "It's amazing to me that someone of your academic and professional credentials could be judged solely on your clothes. We're not in high school anymore. I think you're great. My son will be headed to college soon to study meteorology, so I think it's awesome to see cool people like you in such an intense field!"

Zee has interacted with and exposed Internet trolls before. In August, she posted a screenshot of a another nasty message someone posted on her Facebook page. The man said she was "the most ugly weather girl" he had seen on TV and that she shouldn't "smile so much."

"Please get it right," Zee replied. "[I'm] the ugliest METEOROLOGIST you've ever seen. Happy Friday!"
