Andy Cohen is the shining a light on one of the dark sides of social media after confronting a self-proclaimed troll who criticized him, personally, just to get a reaction out of him.

On Thursday, Cohen, 53, posted screenshots of his online interaction with the anonymous person who hit him up on his Instagram DMs by writing, 'You should try and be a better person for your son.'
