Clapper was set up by Wyden with a question that Wyden already knew the answer for. Clapper didn't handle it very well but Wyden was well aware of what the NSA was doing.
Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions, or hundreds of millions of Americans?"
Clapper: "No, sir."
Wyden: "It does not?"
Clapper: "Not wittingly. There are cases where they could inadvertently, perhaps, collect, but not wittingly."
Wyden: "All right. Thank you. I’ll have additional questions to give you in writing on that point, but I thank you for the answer."

But that has nothing to do with the video above...there is no doubt everything he said was accurate in that interview.
