John Stossel
Investigative Journalist/Commentator
Artists & Icons
...When markets are free, and when government does not collude with business, greed is useful. People acting in their own self-interest is the fuel for all the discovery, innovation, and prosperity that powers the world.
Former ABC News correspondent and Fox Business host, Stossel built his reputation as an investigative journalist uncovering fraud, waste, and abuse—first in the private sector, then increasingly within government itself. Originally known for his consumer reporting, Stossel shifted toward a libertarian perspective after years of seeing how regulation often produced unintended consequences and stifled innovation. His documentary specials and best-selling books helped make him one of the most recognizable media advocates for free markets and personal freedom. Since leaving mainstream networks, Stossel has continued his work through platforms like Reason and Stossel in the Classroom, creating educational videos that critique government intervention and promote economic literacy.
