Saturday Night Taping of the STOSSEL Show! John Stossel is the most recognized libertarian spokesman alive today. His long run as a reporter for ABC’s 20/20 exposed millions of people to the follies of government intervention. His new show Stossel on Fox Business News provides a wonderful platform to discuss the ideas of liberty and get them out to a wide audience. Students For Liberty is proud to announce that the 2011 International Students For Liberty Conference will feature a taping of the STOSSEL Show featuring John Stossel, special guest David Boaz, and the hundreds of students at the conference.

This is our opportunity to showcase the strength of the student movement for liberty! The episode will be broadcast worldwide and show that not only John Stossel and David Boaz believe in liberty, but that the hundreds of young, enthusiastic, student attendees do as well. This is our chance to show the world what we are all about. You do not want to miss out.
