The co-host of "20/20" John Stossel vented publicly on ABC's Web site after the network pulled his report on Canadian health insurance for an update on Michael Jackson last Friday, the day after the singer's death, the New York Post says.
"I am sick of the Michael Jackson coverage," Stossel wrote on his abc.com blog, adding that, "I hate it that ABC didn't run my piece."
He didn't stop there, adding that "free markets sometimes encourage pandering to the masses," and noting, "Of course, maybe my bosses made the wrong choice. Maybe more viewers would have tuned in for my health care report. But the beauty of the market is that if they regularly choose wrong, they will go bankrupt."
