Bounty hunter TV show off air after star's racist slur

Television bounty hunter Duane “Dog” Chapman’s show was taken off air indefinitely by cable TV network A&E today, two days after a private phone conversation in which the reality star repeatedly used a racist slur was posted online.

“In evaluating the circumstances of the last few days, A&E has decided to take Dog The Bounty Hunter off the network’s schedule for the foreseeable future,” the network said in a statement today.
