CSRwire CEO Takes on John Stossel of FOX Business

SPRINGFIELD, Mass., Dec. 30, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- As CSRwire's profile expands worldwide, it attracts the attention of media outlets seeking thought leadership and expert opinion on corporate social responsibility and sustainability.

This week CSRwire attracted the attention of the self-described Libertarian John Stossel, host of the FOX Business program 'Stossel', who interviewed Sibilia for his end of the year program called "Charity."

Sibilia had a good time debating Stossel about excessive CEO pay, landfills, chemical use, corporate investment in innovative products and services, consumer activism, talent development, and the very definition of corporate social responsibility. Sibilia made some important points about Net Impact, Social Venture Network and argued that he'd be willing to eat his organic TS Design t-shirt to further the sustainability movement in business.

"Joe was brilliant on camera opposite Stossel, answering questions non-stop for almost 15 minutes. His arguments were so good that after the show Stossel admitted 'Joe started convincing him' of the importance of CSR," said Janet M. Morgan, CSRwire President.

Stossel's "Charity" program will air on the FOX Business Network on December 30, 2010 at 9 p.m. and 12 midnight EST. It re-runs Saturdays at 9 p.m. and 12 midnight, and Sundays at 9 p.m. EST.
