Stossel, the “20/20″ host is expected to sign a multi-year-deal with Fox. Stossel will have a two-hour weekly show on Fox Business and then make appearances on Fox News in both daytime and primetime hours.

Stossel’s decision comes right after Charlie Gibson’s announcement last week saying he was retiring from ABC News.

ABC released this statement on Stossel’s departure:

John has been an important part of the ABC News family for decades and we will miss him. He has engaged, and occasionally enraged, our audience with thought provoking opinions and analysis. John is a unique figure in American journalism and will be an asset to Fox News in this next chapter of his terrific career. We wish John the very best and look forward to hearing his take on the great issues of the day from his new home at Fox.
