A&E Still Making Money Off The Dog

A&E pulled Dog Chapman's show off the air, but that's not stopping the network from continuing to make a buck off the scandalized bounty hunter.
Ultimate Dog The Bounty Hunter DVD Collection
One can still visit the A&E web store and buy such delights as "Ultimate Dog The Bounty Hunter DVD Collection" -- for a mere $35.95. Arf. The collection includes such gems as the Dog's book, "You Can Run But You Can't Hide" and the Dog's favorite episodes, plus his charming wedding video.

The question is, who wants this stuff?

6. Now A&E has a problem now that they have come across this dilemma. Unfortunately, if they stop the show AND stop selling products then many more people who depend on a paycheck will be without a job. I am not necessarily talking about the execs who have more money than most, I am thinking about the "little" people who are working their A**es off to support their families. That is what is really sad here, just because of one person's ignorance I do not think that everyone else should have to pay.
Let's face it, money, and/or lack thereof makes a very big difference in the world today. I feel for the crew who may be looking at sudden unemployment, especially at this time of year.

8. What's the big deal?

Simple people also buy RAP cd's that say worse things....

and it's not even a private conversation...

9. So, what....? I'm on Dog's side. He was stupid on the phone with his son. But, I don't believe he's a racist. If I did think him to be a racist, I'd be the first in line to give him the business end of my boot. The KKK is all vigilante thugs and cowards.

11. 10. A&E has the right to recoup their losses-

RECOUP THEIR LOSSES??!! It was THEIR choice to pull his show...and it was a HUGE mistake!! I doubt any of us could stand up under the same kind of scrutiny this man is under. They need to put his show back on, let him go about his life, and leave him the hell alone!!

12. Don't think A&E has sold many Dog videos in the last few days. They cut off their nose to spite their face and like another poster stated - put a lot of little people out of work.

13. What the Dog said was a personal conversation between him and his son and it should have been left that way. We have probably all said something in our personal conversations at one time or another in our lives that we did not want repeated so give the guy a break, he is human.
If A & E had to taken a vote on whether or not to suspend the TV show, I would have voted to leave it on. He has helped alot of people. I support the Dog.

14. Disgusting..This man is a total phony..created by T.V. in a MANAGED reality show..He does nothing more or less then any other bounty hunter who earns money on the backs of unfortunate (mostly drug addicts) people. This private tiraid is the REAL DOG showing his ugly teeth,and trying to blame it on some passing "I don't know what got into me" moment..And as for his "black spiritual advisor" another FOOL looking for the spotlight..As far as I'm concerned the less of THE DOG, his STRIPPER WIFE,and their PUPPY DOG man of god...THE BETTER

15. TMZ, I am starting to lose interest in you. Dog is getting a bad rap for this. We have all said the N word, what's the big deal? If certain people had thicker skins and higher self esteem, this would be a non issue. Maybe the girl he was talking about is a low life and he doesn't want her as part of his family. He has every right to say what ever the hell he needs to say to convince his son. This was a private conversation. I do not support A&E's stand on this and will no longer watch that channel. I have nothing against black people but I too can't stand low life's.
