Week In The News: Candidates’ Health, Polls Tighten, More Russian Hacks (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

Tightening polls in the presidential race this week, with Donald Trump out front in some key swing states and Hillary Clinton briefly sidelined with pneumonia. Trump glosses his own health with Dr. Oz. Clinton goes after Trump "deplorables." And Trump talks childcare and supply-side economics. Colin Powell is hacked. Syria’s ceasefire looks fragile. A call for pardon for Edward Snowden. And Americans’ median income, up 5 percent. Hooray! This hour, On Point: Our weekly news roundtable goes behind the headlines. - Tom Ashbrook
