Is it politically incorrect to punch the host? Bill Maher seems to think so.
Erik Estrada, who played a California Highway Patrol officer in the 1970s, accidentally punched Maher in the nose during a recent taping of the game show "Pictionary." It happened when Estrada became exuberant over a win and threw his arms in the air as Maher leaned forward.Maher, host of ABC's "Politically Incorrect," went on with the taping after putting an ice pack on his face, his publicist Jeff Abraham told Daily Variety. The segment will not air, Abraham said.
