hahaha, hell yeah.
Wow, I cant believe I missed this. I just saw the video today, and searched before starting a new thread. (Yes, I have been living under a rock).
Anyways, to contribute, Here is how the TV Show ACTUALLY AIRED:

She was getting mad saying the guys arent talking back. The guy said "actually the thing is we dont want to talk to you".
She says, "... go and fuck yourself"
He replies, "you go?"
Does the TV show still air? with the same hosts?

So the gang bang didn't bother him, even while it was happening, but the slap did.
I wasn't on a game show but this happened to me in my friend's house two weeks ago after a nice long night of power drinking after the fight. The friend's wife who tends bar brought home one of her barfly friends who works there to hang out I guess and she decided to be one of the guys and butt in on one of our conversations. Surprisingly similar dialogue though:
"WHO CALLED ME A WHORE?"
(no one called her that, we were referring to my passed out friend who's a cassanova, or at least claims to be)
"WHO CALLED ME A WHORE?"
Well, at this point everyone is fairly boozed up. So I say "No one called you a whore, why are you getting worked up unless you actually ARE a whore?"
*SLAP*
Knocked my glasses clear off my face and they landed on the bar. It was as close to a punch as an open fist strike could be.
I didn't strike back.
My friend had another plan in mind. He's the owner of the house who of course doesn't stray away from a good spar, verbally or otherwise with anyone when he's been tipping 'em back like we were. So he took care of it.
And by took care of it, I mean sprang up out of his seat before I could even touch my glasses to put them back on, picked her up by the throat, lifted her up and slammed her up against the wall and screamed something to the effect of "DON'T YOU EVER F*CKING TOUCH MY FRIENDS YOU C***" (they don't like that word apparently, it seems to set most girls off ) .. But she didn't have time to react, because he dropped her on the ground from picking her up like that, then carried her upstairs and out the door on her ass and told her to GTFO.
I didn't know if that was the appropriate way to handle the situation at the time, I've never been in that situation before. No punches were thrown so it wasn't that violent but I still thought "man, I don't know, she is just a chick.." Well, after talking to my friends and my family I've come to the conclusion in this case - If you come into someone else's house regardless of sex and try to start something like that and haul off and slap someone without just cause you can and should be dealt with appropriately.
She called my friend's wife a week later and apologized for the incident and realized she was acting like a bitch. And also was surprised it took two of his friends to hold him back.
Ahh, good times. Thanks for the reminder!

Cheaterz beat this when the host got stabbed on a boat.

She hit first. He has the right to defend himself. That's how I see it.
It's only remained a double standard though because women are the weaker sex (physically) in most cases.

I do see where you're coming from. 🙂
As much as I agree, it doesn't seem to matter if it's a small guy who hits a big guy first.
Usually, people will step in if the bigger guy decides to beat him to excess, but no one's going to jump on him for a retaliatory punch (or however many it may take to get the guy to stop fighting back).
So in my mind, the 'weaker' excuse doesn't fly in terms of denying it's a gender oriented double standard.
I still personally would NEVER hit a woman though.
