Robert De Niro, 80-year-old Oscar-winner, was set to receive the National Association of Broadcasters' Service to America Award next Tuesday in Washington, DC, but the organization rescinded the award because they claim the ceremony is ''proudly bi-partisan.'' He called Donald Trump a "clown," adding that "we've forgotten the lessons of history that showed us other clowns who weren't taken seriously until they became vicious dictators."
