"We
are thrilled to have Zoey join 'Inside Edition' as Special Correspondent
and make some TV history," said the magazine show's executive producer,
Charles Lachman, in a statement.
Formerly
known as Chopper Bob, Tur made a name for herself as a helicopter
pilot who covered the infamous O.J. Simpson police pursuit in 1994 and the Los
Angeles riots in 1992.
Tur
will discuss her transformation on Tuesday's show and will pilot her first
helicopter since the gender reassignment surgery on Wednesday.
"There's
diversity in nature, so why not the media? I want to thank 'Inside
Edition' for their support in what's shaping up to be America's last civil
rights fight," Tur said.
