Given that: frankly people say all sorts of things privately and to have taped a private conversation and make public and be judged publicly is ridiculous.
So are we.

Agreed. No one is perfect. HOWEVER, there are two points here to consider: (1) "Dog" makes a living making people's private lives public, including his own. No, I don't feel sorry for those people, but I also don't feel sorry for "Dog". (2) The son had been telling everyone his father talked this way previously, and his father denied it and made the son look like a liar. So, it seems the son wanted evidence.
Once I overheard a group of people using that very word against my family... my children even. (They were liberals, btw.) Then, instead of apologizing directly to me so that we could settle things between us without the story spreading and hurting all of us, they spread a lie around about it. They made me look like the bad person, and my kids suffered as a result. Now, if I had an opportunity to catch them on tape, I'd probably do it.
