I was watching John Stossel recent attack on trial lawyers. It’s really sad how illogical he has gotten. But, it is really predictable. It was minutes before he brought up John Edwards, the McDonald’s case, and even a phone call to a plaintiff. (Who did what she should do and say "Ask my lawyer")
My friends here at Injuryboard have already been talking about the issue:

John Stossel attacking lawyers is not really a surprise. The thing is, he really is attacking the consumer and our system of government. He’s a shill for big business and the insurance companies. We need to keep calling him out for his unsupported and dishonest witch hunts.
