Slap Schtick

In the new Weekly Standard, Steve Hayes has an excellent profile of “Airplane!” director David Zucker, whose new movie “An American Carol” is a farce of Michael Moore’s Hollywood.
It’s a great read, but this moment particularly stands out:
Robert Davi, who plays the lead terrorist in the Zucker film, joins us as the discussion turns from policy to the cable pundit shows. Davi is one of those actors with an instantly recognizable face–he was the villain in the Bond film Licence to Kill–but whose name is unknown to most of the country.
“I can’t stand Keith Olbermann,” says Davi. “Jesus Christ, I want to slap that guy.”
At 1:07 in the below video, you’ll get an idea of what that just might look like.
