He was mad because his son has a black girlfriend. So his son recorded him saying nigger on the phone and he sold the tape to the national enquirer. His show was canceled because of it, and now he's apologizing for using the word.

This whole situation is a shame for Dog's sake because this was a private conversation with his son and now all of this has happened. I thoroughly enjoyed the special Geraldo did on reverse racism and how white people do not get any slack but black people can say anything and not have to apologize. White people don't even get any slack to the point where people like Dog have to apologize for a private conversation with his child.

Duane "Dog" Chapman: I don't care if she's a Mexican, a whore or whatever. It's not because she's black, it's because we use the word 'nigger' sometimes here. I'm not gonna take a chance ever in life of losing everything I've worked for for 30 years because some fucking nigger heard us say 'nigger' and turned us in to the Enquirer magazine. Our career is over! I'm not taking that chance at all! Never in life! Never! Never! If Lyssa [Dog's daughter] was dating a nigger, we would all say 'fuck you!' And you know that. If Lyssa brought a black guy home … ya da da. It's not that they're black, it's none of that. It's that we use the word 'nigger.' We don't mean, 'you fucking scum nigger without a soul.' We don't mean that shit. But America would think we mean that. And we're not taking a chance on losing everything we got over a racial slur because our son goes with a girl like that. I can't do that Tucker. You can't expect Gary, Bonnie, Cecily, all them young kids to [garbled] because 'I'm in love for 7 months'—fuck that! So, I'll help you get another job but you can not work here unless you break up with her and she's out of your life. I can't handle that shit. I got 'em in the parking lot trying to record us. I got that girl saying she's gonna wear a recorder... |

Yeah the whole situation is pretty ridiculous. I think he's making it worse by going on this apology tour. He should just say he's not a racist, and it was a private conversation.

I say nigger all the time.
If more people said it frequently, it would be less taboo.
Black people say it and nobody cares.
I've been called cracker or some variant thereof many times without getting upset.

^^^^ "cracker" hardly has the same weight and history that "nigger" does. do you think that it's fine to wear a swastika around, since the swastika's a symbol and has no inherent (offensive) meaning--only the meaning that people ascribe to it? I hate it when white people complain about NOT BEING ABLE TO SAY THE N-WORD as though their rights are being trampled on--as though showing the bare minimum of sensitivity by not using a word that's historically been used to degrade human beings impinges on their freedom of speech.

I don't know anything about this situation besides what's on this thread, but it sounds like it wasn't a "private conversation with his child" that attracted a media storm, it was a conversation made public by that very child, who obviously thought that what Dog was saying was offensive and backwards.

It shouldn't matter, but he should still say he's not a racist if he wants to get his show back.

^^But it was still a private conversation even though it was made public. I'm not saying I feel bad for him, but I don't think he did anything wrong.

Being politically correct is worse than being racist.
Saying the word nigger does not make you racist.
