Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) asked Fox News Digital reporter Nicholas Ballasy if he watches gay porn, which caused Ballasy to drop his ambush interview and flee the scene in Washington D.C., notes The Hill:

Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) confronted a Fox News digital reporter and asked him if he likes “gay porn” as part of a video he posted online over the weekend.
“So let me ask you, I heard that you like gay porn, is that true?” Massie asks the reporter in the video he posted on the social platform X.
“Congressman, I’m not … I just wanted to give you a chance to give your side of it, that’s all,” the reporter, Nicholas Ballasy, said.
As the reporter began to walk away, Massie pressed him and followed him, saying, “I’m giving you a chance to give your side.”
“Are you a real news organization or not?” Massie continued. “No come back, man. All you got to say is you don’t like it, that you haven’t been to those websites.”
“Of course I don’t like it,” the reporter said. “But thank you.”
“Oh really?” Massie responded. “That’s not what I heard.”
