Give Me a Break How I Exposed Hucksters, Cheats, and Scam Artists and Became the Scourge of the Liberal Media...

The King of Consumer Reporting Takes America to Task. Working as a correspondent for 20/20 and Good Morning America, John Stossel confronted dozens of scam artists: from hacks who worked out of their basements to some of America's most powerful executives and leading politicians. His efforts shut down countless crooks-both famous and obscure. Then he realized what the real problem was. In Give Me a Break, Stossel takes on the regulators, lawyers, and politicians who thrive on our hysteria about risk and deceive the public in the name of safety. Drawing on his vast professional experience (as well as some personal ones), Stossel presents an engaging, witty, and thought-provoking argument about the beneficial powers of the free market and free speech.Stossel, John is the author of 'Give Me a Break How I Exposed Hucksters, Cheats, and Scam Artists and Became the Scourge of the Liberal Media...', published 2005 under ISBN 9780060529154 and ISBN 0060529156.
