The idiot propagandist John Stossel of ABC News, or rather someone writing in his name, responds to FAIR's deadly critique of his nonsensical program about how wonderful the USA is at <http://www.fair.org/activism/abc-response.html>. FAIR's original critique is at <http://www.fair.org/activism/stossel-america.html> and their response to his response is at <http://www.fair.org/activism/fair-stossel.html>.
