Nyle DiMarco Slams Fox News 'Deaf and Dumb'

Deaf News: 'Dancing with the Stars' winner, Nyle DiMarco slams FOX News for 'Blind, Deaf and Dumb' headline in the United States.

LOS ANGELES -- Nyle DiMarco took offense to one of Fox News' recent online editorial stories.

The opinion piece titled "When It Comes to Hillary Clinton, American Justice Is Blind, Deaf and Dumb," struck a chord with the Dancing With the Stars winner, who shared his grievances with his Twitter followers on Thursday.

"Fox News, I don't appreciate 'Blind, Deaf, and Dumb,'" he wrote. "I'm Deaf and I'm not ignorant at all."

DiMarco added, "Use better words, thanks!"

The 27-year-old model's stance received mixed reviews from his social media followers, with several tweets attempting to clarify the headline. "Better words could have been chosen but doesn't 'dumb' also mean unable to speak?" one commenter inquired.

"I think you may have misread. I don't think they meant that being deaf is automatically accompanied by dumbness," was another response.

"I think you took their words the wrong way, Nyle," someone else tweeted.

DiMarco's commentary also got its fair share of support from the Twitter community. "Leave it to Fox News to be offensive. Poor taste. Nyle, sue them," one tweet suggested.

Another Twitter user sympathized with DiMarco's reaction to the headline. "I agree. I have blind parents with master degrees. I feel media has the disability," she wrote.

"People need to be more respectful, I bet Nyle is more intelligent than the people who wrote this," yet another one of DiMarco's followers responded.

ET viewers got a lesson from DiMarco after he won America's Next Top Model last year. Here he is teaching famous phrases from the popular series.

ET News: 'DWTS' Nyle DiMarco & Peta Murgatroyd

WATCH: 'DWTS' Peta Murgatroyd talks overcoming challenges with partner Nyle DiMarco: 'I've never trained with a Deaf person before'

LOS ANGELES -- Entertainment Tonight spoke with both the dancing pro and her Dancing with the Stars partner at the 2016 Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday, where Peta Murgatroyd admitted that working with Nyle DiMarco is a very different experience for her.

"I've never trained with a Deaf person before, so it's a whole new ball game for me," she said. "Being a teacher, I have to really find out different teaching methods to be able to overcome this, and so far we're going really well."

One person who doesn't seem nervous at all is the America's Next Top Model winner. In fact, DiMarco is excited about how quickly he's learning to dance.

"Actually, my dancing feet are pretty good," he told ET via his interpreter on the orange carpet. "I'm pretty surprised and pretty impressed, because I've never danced before. I also have a great teacher!"

"It's not exactly what I expected," the 26-year-old model added. "I thought that I would struggle a lot and it would be frustrating, but actually, it's going really well."

The dancing duo revealed that they will have to cha cha "straight out of the gate," and the ballroom pro says their take on it is "fast, sexy, fun, high energy!"

ET also caught up with the pair on Wednesday at Planet Hollywood in New York City, where DiMarco revealed Murgatroyd has already helped him boost his confidence on the dance floor.

"The first day that we met, right before she came in, of course I've never danced ever. So that's what I was nervous about," he shared. "I didn't want to look bad on the first day of rehearsals. Now I'm not nervous at all. All thanks to her."

Murgatroyd echoed his statements, praising DiMarco for his hard work and dedication in rehearsals.

"He's doing amazingly well. Part [of that] is just his amazing work ethic," she gushed. "He literally doesn't sit down. Usually people will sit down every five minutes, but he works constantly throughout the four hours that we have."

"He's just so visually aware," she added. "Probably doubly as visually aware as anyone else because he doesn't have hearing. He picks up the steps very quickly, and its very surprising. At first I was really nervous, too. I didn't know how it was going to go. I wanted to be clear, I wanted to make sure that I could be the best teacher possible."

If the pair does win season 22, it will be the second time Murgatroyd has won DWTS. She and NFL star Donald Driver took home the mirror ball trophy during season 14.

DiMarco is joined in the competition by an all-star cast that includes Jodie Sweetin, Mischa Barton, Ginger Zee and Super Bowl 50 MVP, Von Miller.

Miller is paired with pro Witney Carson, who ET also caught up with at the KCAs. The newylwed dished on how the NFL pro was shaping up in the ballroom.

"He's picking up things so quick. He's great on choreography. He's an amazing student," she gushed. "I love that because I get to boss a big football player around... Read more on ET.

ANTM Cycle 22 Finale, Winner Is... Nyle DiMarco !

WATCH [CC] - Deaf News: Tyra Banks Names Nyle DiMarco the Final Winner of 'America’s Next Top Model'.

LOS ANGELES -- Entertainment Tonight: The judges have deliberated, and America's next top model is… Nyle DiMarco!

The 26-year-old model becomes the second male winner of the series - following Keith Carlos, who won cycle 21 - and the only Deaf contestant to compete on the reality competition show. He’s also the final model to land on top after creator and host Tyra Banks announced the series’ cancellation midway through the cycle.

.@NyleDiMarco U R The Last America's Next Top Model! I can't wait 2 C the legacy U build Make me PROUD! 💋 #ANTM pic.twitter.com/Fxwc2sC0jD

— Tyra Banks (@tyrabanks) December 5, 2015

From the beginning of cycle 22, the judges - Banks, Kelly Cutrone, and J. Alexander -- and other contestants made a big deal about his hearing, but being Deaf didn’t seem to be a disadvantage. In fact, DiMarco said it helped him in the competition.

I am.... AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL! & THE LAST WINNER & WHO HAPPENS TO BE DEAF! Thank you @tyra and #ANTM for giving me voice!!!

“The biggest advantage of me being Deaf is that my language requires me to move my body,” DiMarco told Entertainment Tonight in September, “so it's easy for me to show movement in my body and brings the best of me in photographs.”

DiMarco quickly became a fan favorite thanks to his washboard abs, piercing blue eyes and charming persona. But he also delivered fierce photos each week, winning two elimination challenges and only landing in the bottom two once.

While the competition itself may be over, DiMarco’s career is just beginning. The budding model told Entertainment Tonight that he hopes to become the next male supermodel and to create an equal space for men in the modeling world.

“America's Next Top Model changed my life because I am more aware of the modeling world and I have a great network now,” he said of the experience, adding: “I have even more fans than I did before.”

6 'ANTM' contestants who actually went on to become famous... Oh, we bet he does!

You can check out more about DiMarco at ET’s exclusive interview with him. Check back next week when we sit down with the big winner to catch up on everything that’s been going on since the competition aired.

'ANTM' Contestant Nyle DiMarco's ASL Phrases

WATCH: ET Interviews: 'ANTM' Deaf contestant Nyle DiMarco names his sexiest feature and signs 'Top Model' phrases.

While it’s easy to brush off America's Next Top Model in its 22nd cycle, there’s one very hunky reason to still watch: Nyle DiMarco.

In fact, this cycle has been fun to watch as the guys an addition to the competition in cycle 20 have been bringing the drama, as well as the sex appeal.

Nyle DiMarco is one the show’s leading contestants, standing at 6’2” with piercing blue eyes and washboard abs. He also happens to be Deaf, which Tyra Banks and others initially thought of as a possible hindrance.

But over the course of the competition, the 26-year-old model has shown that it’s actually a benefit. DiMarco tells ET that reading body language comes naturally to him, helping him understand how to pose with his body.

The cycle 22 breakout sat down with ET to talk about embracing fame.

He can also shut out all the unending fights that take place in the house each week. “Fortunately, I'm Deaf, so I don't have to hear all of their drama,” says DiMarco, staying above the fray that often comes back to Banks’ Ty-Overs. “I just want to say that you all are complaining about hair, hair, hair. Am I complaining about my deafness? No, I am not.”

When it comes to his best assets, Banks and fellow judge (and PR maven) Kelly Cutrone have taken notice of his abs and waist, often asking him to remove his shirt during panel. And DiMarco totally understands. “My sexiest feature is my body,” he says, adding, “I work out a lot.” ... Read The Full Story.

Watch a preview from an upcoming episode of ANTM in which DiMarco’s housemates learn ASL phrases Top Models Learn ASL For Deaf Contestant.
