If Iger thought his attempt to exec-splain the situation would make actors think twice about walking out, he was very much mistaken. Instead, he handed SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher the perfect opportunity for the kind of speech usually shouted atop the barricades.

"Execsplain" has become my new favorite word in this brave new era of CEOs proving the need for guillotines and machetes; and I plan to incorporate it into my diction post-motherfuckin-haste.
