John Stossel on Journalism, How He Became Libertarian & His New Book "No They Can't"

Views:2057
@ReasonVids

"Some guy came up to me said, 'Are you John Stossel?...I hope you die soon,'" recounts Fox Business Network host and Reason contributor John Stossel. Thankfully Stossel found a more civil audience when he stopped by Reason's Washington, DC office on April 11, 2012 to promote his new book "No, They Can't: Why Government Fails But Individuals Succeed."

During a lively Q&A session, Stossel took questions from the audience about his book, his time as a consumer reporter, and the power of the internet to communicate libertarian ideas.

About 6.30 minutes.


Camera by Joshua Swain, Meredith Bragg and Jim Epstein. Edited by Swain.
