PBS News Hour

Tuesday, December 6, 2011

Season 2011 Episode 3400 | 54m 17s

What does the coordinated sectarian violence in Kabul mean for the fragile security situation in Afghanistan and how will it impact the U.S. drawdown of forces? Also, we get the latest on the elections in Russia as fraud allegations emerge and we report on the city of Detroit's beleaguered finances and uphill battle to stay afloat. Finally, we examine the mental health of a hockey 'enforcer.'
