DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER UPDATES:
SIGN THE SAVE THE BOUNTY HUNTER PETITION
LISTEN to the INTERVIEW: DOG is a "Ticking Bomb"
Dog the Bounty Hunter's thousands of fans now have a chance to be heard. There are petitions popping up all over the internet.
When last we looked there were petitions, like the one below at "Keep Dog on TV", at TMZ and for awhile on CNN at the Larry King Page.
Whether these will sway the powers-that-be at the Arts & Entertainment Network, where the Bounty Hunter held sway, is not known. But if you are a Dog fan, it can't hurt and it gives you a chance to express your opinion.
Thousands upon thousands of Dog fans across the country have poured onto the Internet this week to help rally support to help return "Dog the Bounty Hunter" back to the airwaves.
One thing is for sure, the support for the Bounty Hunter seems to be in the 85-90% range. That's 9-1 in favor of the show returning.
And the support cuts across racial lines. Of the many comments and letters received at this site alone, the support among non-whites is nearly as great as the white Dog Fans.
Most fans are basically saying the same thing.
"We know Dog's a little rough around the edges. He's lived a hard life and tried to provide for his family. He shouldn't have said what he said, but it was private and if you listen to the tapes, he was more worried about his son Tucker's girlfriend being offended if she was around than slurring her."
Or variations thereof.

Here's an audio link from TMZ of an interview in July where the Dog says somedays he's like a bomb, ready to blow.

If A & E doesn't respond to the outpouring of support for the Bounty Hunter, it's nearly certain that one of their competitors will. Advertisers have to take note also that the outcry in nearly wholly behind the hard-living Dog who has a heart of gold.

Dog the Bounty Hunter and Black America: Dog Update
A nice article from Bloggers New Network about Black America: Does it forgive Dog the Bounty Hunter? The story below speculates that they do, based on the response from Dog's black fans.
We got one such letter yesterday at DBKP. It's after the story below.
From psburton at BNN:
A majority of African Americans who saw Duane Chapman’s interview on Larry King express a willingness to forgive dog the bounty hunter provided his remorse and humility was genuine. I made a point of asking one of my neighbors who is black to watch the show so I could solicit his opinion. ”Mostly I would say its his upbringing that caused him the trouble” my friend remarked. I asked if he felt it would be appropriate for A&E to give him his job back. “Yea and he should spend some of the salary they pay him on adult education”. ”The thing is, Not so much what the “Dog” was saying” ”It’s a black minister willing to come on National t.V.’ and say now look here brothers and sisters, I am this mans spiritual leader and while he may need counseling on the use of profanity and slurs he is not a racist and I am also telling you he is a believing Christian and a friend of mine”
The king interview revealed a man who confirmed my previous opinion its not so much an issue of racism with the Dog as it is a lack of education and impulse control. Some cash spent on a few verbal advantage tapes and anger management courses would be a good step toward achieving his stated desire to become something other then where he came from.
I speculate many African Americans would object and loudly if A&E or another network decides to return the Dog to America’s living room. But the final decision comes down to dollars and cents. Dog has lots of fans and those fans some of who are black are the ones who ultimately decide what sells and what does not.
More from BNN
We received this email yesterday. We thought the writer made some good points.
I want to send you an e-mail to let you know that I and my non-white family are behind the Dog! He said nothing but an exagerated swear word for what the "duo" must have already done before this incident...
Not only that the conversation very private, but also made public by people that you must doubt integrity and motives; how did they get Dog talking like that despite of his "one of the boys" attitude even with criminals...???? Like my grandson may say,"are you nuts?"
Said Damon Wayans at the "View," "Black folks sitting it out laughing, just watching,, while whites cry out 'foul', 'foul' and have the sense of what?... conscience? " Let's ruin someone today?"
Ruin then anyone who say the word, white or black, grey or yellow...whatever race, rather than hulk in the shadows, wait. then wait for judas and girlfriend with 30 pieces of silver to buy a private conversation. Guess what? Enquirer do not have any ethics, but they showed Dog's son and his girlfriend to be the bad guys here... They must have known the common swear word in the prison, in the house, in Dog's experience, and they entrapped Dog to say it. Wake up everyone, punish the real culprit. Dog takes care of his family; his son and girlfriend want to destroy the family and its livelihood.
Never met Dog except in his tv show that I watch regularly, but I feel for him and the rest of his family...
WE are behind Dog,
Danni, Lynn
Nice letter and story.

DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER: GIRLFRIEND TO SUE DOG -UPDATE-
You just knew it was coming.
In an America where someone sues when they spill coffee in their own lap, it was only a matter of time.
Duane "Dog the Bounty Hunter" Chapman will be the target of a lawsuit by his son Tucker's girlfriend, Monique Shinnery. She said she plans on filing soon.
More from the NE:
The victim of Duane "Dog the Bounty Hunter" Chapman's racist rant announced today that she plans to sue him.
Monique Shinnery, who was repeatedly called "n----r" by Chapman on tape told The National ENQUIRER: "I'm going to sue Dog Chapman."
Chapman not only subjected her to racist slurs, but he also attacked her character in subsequent TV interviews, even though he had never met or spoken to her.
His public attacks on her character pushed Monique over the edge.
As he attempts to save his TV show, Chapman has appeared on two national TV shows offering tearful - and at times bizarre apologies - for using racist slurs. But he has continued to damage Monique's reputation while trying to dig himself out of trouble, she told The National ENQUIRER.
"I want justice," Monique told The National ENQUIRER. "He has slandered me, stated that I have bad character and repeatedly lied about me on national television. If I'm ever going to hold my head up in public again, I need to stand up for what is right."
In March, Dog used the "N" word over and over again while demanding that his son, Tucker, dump Monique, his girlfriend of seven months, if he wants to be part of the Chapman family. The conversation reached the outraged ears of the world when The National ENQUIRER exclusively released the venomous, racist tapes, and caused A&E to drop Dog's show from their schedule "for the foreseeable future." A&E has refused to cancel the show, its top moneymaker.
Chapman has apologized for using the "N" word, but he has tried to keep the focus off the fact that he said he did not want a black person in his house or in his family.
In his first written and public apology, Chapman, who had never met, nor seen, Monique, said, "I was disappointed in his choice of a friend, not due to her race, but her character."
"Dog Chapman knows nothing about my character," Monique, 21, who has no criminal record, works with mentally challenged children and hopes to enlist in the Coast Guard, told The National ENQUIRER. "He doesn't know me, and he has never met me.
"I have had threats from his fans. I have been hiding, afraid to go out. After Dog's slander against me, my boss told me they might require that I take a drug test. I have never done drugs.
"Dog said on television that I had a plan to jump (his wife) Beth and hoped to tape her using racial language. He said he saw me and another girl in a car outside his shop, wearing tank tops.
"I never wear a tank top, I have never been in that parking lot when they were at their bail bond shop and I certainly wouldn't jump Beth. I weigh 105 pounds! She'd kill me!
"It was all lies. He 'apologizes' and then continues to lie about me. I cannot and do not accept his apology, because it was insincere.
"It's not even about him using the 'N' word. It's about him not wanting a black woman to be part of his family or part of his son's life.
"They use the 'N' word all the time. Once, Beth said to Tucker, 'If you want to smoke, you can go over to your n----r girlfriend's house and smoke.' Beth's as much of a racist as Dog is.
"Tucker and I were talking with Baby Lyssa (Dog's daughter) one time and she said, 'N----rs,' and quickly changed it to 'black people' when she realized I was listening. Their family is just like that.

Looks like Monique is reaching for her Lawsuit Lottery ticket and her 15 minutes of fame.
Hope we don't get sued for saying that.

Tucker Richer by More Than 30 Pieces of Silver
Dog to Appear on Larry King LIVE Tonight
Girlfriend Rejects Apology
Dog the Bounty Hunter Wednesday Update:
$10,000? $15,000? $875,000?
How much. How much did Duane "Dog" Chapman's son, Tucker, who sold the tapes of his father talking to him on a private cellphone, recieve for the tapes? Rumors abound as to the amount.
One source said "as much as $875,000", other estimates were quite lower. The lowest amount whispered about was a mere $10,000. Tucker Chapman's known drug problems could have led him to accept the far lower amount. $15,000 is the amount that was used on one broadcast as the amount in question.
Regardless, Tucker received far more than the Biblical "30 pieces of silver", as several have termed it.
Dog will be on Larry King LIVE tonight to discuss: the tapes, what was behind his anger that sparked the outburst and other topics. Larry King Live is on CNN.
Meanwhile, the girlfriend in question said he rejected Dog's apology.
"I know that all of my fans are deeply disappointed in me, as well, as I have tried to be a model for doing the right thing," he said. "I did not do the right thing this time, and hope you will forgive me."
--Duane "Dog" Chapman
The woman at the center of Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman’s racial tirade, which was broadcast throughout the Web and broadcast outlets all over the country, says she rejects his apology.

FROM YESTERDAY
DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER UPDATE: Tuesday 5:53 EST
Dog lands at LAX and is asked "Have you talked to Tucker? Have you guys made up?"
VIDEO HERE
Monday was relatively quiet. A judge dismissed one of the last charges against Duane "Dog" Chapman stemming from his famous Mexico caper with the Max Factor heir. And he landed at LAX with wife Beth and others.
Dog will appear on Larry King LIVE on CNN on Wednesday.
TMZ's take:
Still in the dog house for his liberal use of the N word in a taped phone call with his son Tucker, potty-mouthed "Bounty Hunter" Duane Chapman had little to say on arrival at LAX this morning.
With wife Beth in tow, the gold-chain-wearing ex-con and father of nine (!) revealed only that he has not made up with his young pup -- who allegedly recorded the verbal assault on his girlfriend, Monique Shinnery. Shocker.
