Controversy of American Sniper [AUDIO]
I talked with political analyst and entertainment reporter James Hirsen on WJON today. He commented on the controversy of the Clint Eastwood director film "American Sniper". Some critics have claimed that the movie is propaganda for republicans and glorifies war. Hirsen disagrees with that premise and explains why. Listen to the conversation below.
American Sniper was number one in the box office for a 2nd straight week.
