America Gets a Pep Talk From Tough Guy Clint Eastwood

The Takeaway

Sunday’s Chrysler Super Bowl ad caused some political reaction, but maybe America needs a pep talk from America’s outlaw and tough guy Clint Eastwood. Host John Hockenberry looks at the Eastwood speech in the context of his epic career and America’s need for some tough love in these troubled times. Half time in America? Maybe, but we could sure use some encouragement from Clint.
