      What can I say, "Good riddance to bad rubbish?" I couldn't stand Stossel when he was with ABC, so I won't be listening to that nitwit on Fixed Spews, and maybe it is better for ABC that he is gone. I haven't watched ABC since they cancelled NYPD Blue.

      I bet Glenda Beck really fond of Stossel's 1970s "Boogie Nights" mustache.

      Hoping that Tapper person follows Stossel to Faux News.

        Yes. His "integrity" over going after the White House over his precious competitor is so stunningly brave that Roger Ailes is getting out his Rupert embossed checkbook right now.

      I am very happy that John Stossel is on Fox. I preferred his reports over any Fox News piece.

      Seems Stossel tossed plenty of platitudes towards Glenn Beck, but there was something I thought interesting, and that was Glenn Beck's excitement over another Libertarian on the station.

      If you think of it this way, maybe Glenn Beck's crazy conspiracies, tea parties, and numerous accusations against Democrats and any Republican that doesn't fall in line, are a strategy to have the Libertarians take over the GOP, or ascend to major party status...

      Could it be that this is his political agenda? To undermine both parties, to ensure his political party rises above the rest. The GOP was fractured after the election, and Glenn Beck has solidified his power by using his program to rally the base around him...

      Anyone old enought to remember Stossel getting slapped and thrown to the floor after questioning the legitimacy of wrestling??

      I don't advocate violence, but s-o-m-e-t-i-m-e-s a good slap in the face says it all, huh ..

      interesting exchange between Stossel and O'Reilly last night, 10/20/09, Stossel stating the need to legalize drugs so as to eliminate the violence and exploitation etc. I thought O'Reilly was going to stroke out. Stossel tried to emphasize that 90% of the "drug" use is alcohol.

      He does look like he was going to a casting call for a "Saturday Night Fever" revival.

      Maybe it is a marketing ploy to draw in aging disco people voters

        God some of the stuff MMFA zeros in on is ridiculous. Whether Libs like it or not Fox has the right to exist & hire anyone they want. And if Stossel thanked Beck, why is this big news? Or news at all.

      I've always thought Stossel had an interesting stance so he'll probably fit right in at Fox.

      ABC's gain is Fox's loss.
