A bounty hunter has had his show pulled from US TV schedules after he used a racist term repeatedly in a phone call.
The A&E network said Dog the Bounty Hunter, starring Duane “Dog” Chapman, would be off-air “for the foreseeable future”, but had not been scrapped.The National Enquirer released a recording of a conversation involving the star, repeatedly making derogatory remarks about his son’s girlfriend.
He issued an apology but several civil rights leaders want his show ditched.
They have written to A&E, branding his comments “a vicious attack on… interracial relations, as well as an incitement to violence”.
Chapman’s programme sees him and colleagues trying to find people who have absconded in Hawaii and other US states.
‘Ashamed’
In the phone call, Chapman was heard talking to his son Tucker, urging him to break up with his black girlfriend.
He used the offensive “N-word” six times in the first 45 seconds of the five-minute clip, the Associated Press reported.
In his apology, Chapman said he was ashamed of himself and “should never have used that term”.
And he added he was “disappointed” in his son’s choice of girlfriend “not due to her race, but her character”.
The 54-year-old’s lawyer, Brook Hart, said Chapman was not a racist and promised the word would never be used again by the star.
The media are blowing it up to something huge, here is what he actually said.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7dqwULbZyEHe even says he didnt mean it like most people would assume he meant it, how stupid of dog’s son to release this private phone recording to the media just cos he is p!ssed off with his dad. Without even realising he has most likely put an entire family out of work just cos the kid spat his dummy out. You only hasve to watch some of his shows to see he is not racist.
I think what some people seem to be forgetting is he is not a priest or a bishop, he is not exactly known for his kind words lol, he is a damn bounty hunter afterall!Aloha Brah!
Hopefully he’ll get intouch with David Duke and express his anger at the fascists who sacked him politically.
These political correct fascists have to be brought to book. These people are bringing western life to a stand still because millions of people will rise up one day and say enough is enough.
so you agree with what the man said then emma?
