Dog Chapman has been captured spewing foul-mouthed racist slurs on a tape obtained exclusively by The NATIONAL ENQUIRER.
And now a civil rights leader is calling for Dog's TV show to be removed from the airwaves.
In a shocking world exclusive The ENQUIRER has obtained tapes of two revolting phone conversations in which Duane "Dog" Chapman unleashes a filthy bigoted attack, littered with the N-word and other disgusting racial insults.
The star of the A&E reality show Dog, The Bounty Hunter directed his racist hatred at his son Tucker's girlfriend Monique Shinnery, who is black.
"Dog Chapman should not have a show. That show should be taken off the air!"
That's the opinion of prominent civil rights leader Roy Innis, who has served as the chairman of the Congress for Racial Equality (CORE) since 1968. Innis was shocked and outraged when The ENQUIRER played Dog Chapman's racist telephone conversations for him.
"This man should not be held up as a role model for children," Innis told The ENQUIRER. "He has venom deep in his soul. This is a picture of his heart — a revelation of his true nature.
Innis believes that cable network A&E needs to take swift action in response to Dog's vicious outburst.
"He needs to answer for his behavior," says Innis.
"When someone gets the opportunity to use the airwaves, he becomes a role model, whether he likes it or not. Dog Chapman should not be in that position, posing as a good guy.
"His comments show that he certainly is not a good guy."
Full details are in the new issue of the NATIONAL ENQUIRER.
Update: In response to this story, A&E network has released a statement saying: "A&E has just learned of the story released by the National Enquirer concerning Duane Dog Chapman. We take this matter very seriously. Pending an investigation, we have suspended production on the series. When the inquiry is concluded we will take appropriate action."

In this case, it was a private conversation made public. I do have a problem with that.
I think the son in question IS ALREADY a convicted felon. I am thinking he did some time in prison for robbing a guy of his drugs a few years ago.
When did it become a right in America to listen to other people’s private conversations and then broadcast them all over the world?? And then use those private conversations to destroy their careers??
Yet another TV “show” that I do not waste my time watching. Who cares. If the guy disappeared tomorrow, would our lives suffer? Not mine, because I don’t waste my time watching these stupid shows.
Early in the long-version of the tape, Dog was making a point to say it’s “not because she’s black”...and quantifying that the n-word they use is to describe a low class loser type of person (be they white, hispanic, black, etc). When he’s using the n-word, it’s not used only against blacks, it’s more specific to class than race. I see where he’s going with that, but he’s facing an awful high mountain to climb to pull himself out of this one, simply because of the stigma of using that word. It’s too bad, because I think by and large Dog is a good person who pulled himself up for a bad early station in life.
That's how I feel about it.
It was being reported earlierthat Chapman wanted breakup of his son and the sons girlfriend, for more then her skincare.
Fox was reporting that there have been problems with the son since he has started seeing the girlfriend.
Reports were also that they were trying to get chapman, on tape, saying a racial slur so it could be turned over to the trashrags. I guess the son must be proud. He was probably paid a few thousand of dollard to destroy his fathers reputation, financec and business including what puttint the entire DOG venture supports. Taking out didn’t only hurt Dog, all members of the team have childrend who need tobe taken care of.
What is shocking is how many morons watch his TV program and that he gets actually gets paid.
I think the "Dog" destroyed his own reputation by using calling someone the N-Word.
Kudos to A&E for firing the Dumb Dog.
Seems Dog also caught his son’s GF trying to record him in a parking lot, so he was already aware what she was all about. I guess he trusted his son. In the recording he mentions that he was afraid his use of the word would end up in the Enquirer etc... Looks like his son accomplished what the GF could not; destroying his father.
Yeah, making public how Duane really feels proves that the kid is a bad person. Maybe Duane’s “Team” can than him for being a racist P.O.S. when they have problems paying their bills. Time to put the ‘Dog’ down.
I guess their father-son relationship is over forever. He must really hate his father.
I agree with your assesment, Azzurri. That's what makes this so unfortunate.
Btw, I didn't read the whole thread so it was probably already mentioned, but his pastor (who is black) defended him and stated that he doesn't think Dog is racist. If I'm not mistaken, his pastor was also the one who conducted Dog and Beth's wedding ceremony.
Where did you hear the part that his son's GF was trying to record him in a parking lot? There's definitely more to this story that I would like to hear about, and it is starting to become apparent that it's the GF's character, and not her skin color, that was the concern.
When Mel Gibson tells him that his daughter is pregnant he says (paraphrasing) to Riggs which much emotion, especially body language :
"...please let the father not be white..."
I wonder which son it was...??
local radio: they were reading it instead of playing it. somewhere he mentions her trying to record him. i’ll try to track it down online.
