Many were surprised when the Arts and Entertainment network -- a cable channel generally associated with more cultural pursuits -- featured a "reality" series about a vain, self-righteous bounty hunter who goes by the name of "Dog."
But A&E didn't really click to what Duane "Dog" Chapman and his dysfunctional wannabe-cop family were about until one of his sons sold a secretly-recorded tape to a tabloid, in which the elder Chapman repeatedly referred to his son's Mexican girlfriend a "whore" and a "ni***r".
Now Chapman claims a white supremacy group has a bounty on his head after he issued an apology, according to a spokesman for the black advocacy group 'Congress Of Racial Equality'.
Maybe with the writers strike, well get to see Reality shows about Reality shows gone bad...
The Dog just needs to call up Jesse Jackson and "aappoollooggiizzee".
He'll probably be the first guest on Imus' next job.
