Ginger brushed off the criticism with ease and clearly didn't let it bother her too long.

Ginger had said: "I'm human. Just a friendly reminder," which prompted the troll to comment: "You're paid millions to read cue cards."

She refused to let them get away with it and snapped back: "Can you please get me paid millions and no, I don't read anything — I ad lib. I'm a scientist who talks about science — with no script."

Ginger says, 'women can be scientists AND look good in a skirt'.

"A scientist? Sorry baby," they wrote. "You're a weather girl who looks good in a skirt."

Ginger had one more thing to say before triumphantly signing off as she commented: "Peter — I only comment back to you a second time in case others need the education.

"Women can be scientists AND look good in a skirt. I happen to be one of those women. Don’t project your anger and frustration on others without knowing the facts."
