Prior to joining FBN, Stossel co-anchored ABC`s primetime news magazine show, 20/20. There he contributed in-depth special reports and recurring segments on a variety of consumer topics, from pop culture to government and business.

His John Stossel specials asked tough questions facing Americans today. Sick in America delved into the debate between private vs. government health care.
