Twitter Bans Milo Yiannopoulos After Tweeting Leslie Jones; Conservative Gay Activist 'In Talks' For Reality TV [VIDEO]

By

After the Twitter fight with "Ghostbusters" star Leslie Jones, Twitter banned the self-described gay conservative, Milo Yiannopoulos. Some reports said the British journalist might have a reality TV show.

The Conservative gay activist was banned for life on Twitter, according after he exchanged tweets to the "Ghostbusters" star Leslie Jones. The reason why he was banned on social media is for being " politically incorrect opinions" and he may have caused or led other users, particularly his followers, to attack the actress.

In a  CNBC interview with Yiannopoulos, he said he is not responsible about what other people want to post on Twitter. He asked the interviewer if Justin Bieber's fans decided to cut themselves with hashtag #cutforbieber.

He added that the phrase, "Twitter is a place to express yourself, is a lie because the company applies their own rules so conspicuously and inconsistently.

After being banned, Yiannapoulos made pledges at the GOP Convention that he might have his own reality show, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

According to Breitbart.com editor, he is in discussions to star in his own reality TV show, and a movie. He revealed these plans to THR during Facebook live interview.  

"We are currently considering a reality show, we are currently considering a feature-length movie," he said.

Meanwhile, after receiving negative tweets, and being a target of online trolls that send hateful memes and racist remarks, "Ghostbusters" actress Jones announced she will leave Twitter. Some trolls edited images of her, which some of them are distasteful.

"Ghostbusters" reboot director Paul Feig has expressed his support for Jones, according to Time. The director tweeted that the actress is one of the greatest people he knows with a hashtag, #LoveforLeslieJ.

Since the "Ghostbusters" trailer was released, the movie received a lot of negative comments. As a matter of fact, the trailer received more thumbs down than thumbs up on Youtube.
