Whether his statements were taken out of context or not, I still feel bad for him. That was a private phone conversation with his son. In all likelihood, he's the one who sold it to the Enquirer. Think about it. He was double-crossed by his own son.
Couldn't agree more. That sucks. I don't watch his show but my in-laws watch him on a regular basis. They love it!! Hats, T-shirts everything...(not the Beth costumes - as far as I know)
I'm sure "Dog" has done some shitty things in the past, but it doesn't look like he's doing robberies now. If anyone is to blame for putting shows like that on TV it's the networks and the viewing public for watching it.
I think it's just human nature. Our voyeuristic side - like slowing down and gawking while driving by a messy accident scene (unless you're looking for a place to park so you can jump out and help). While I'm sure he's into it for the ride, IMO he is nothing more than another person exploited on North American TV.
Before the networks shut down "Dog" they should really consider canceling that talk show where everyone fights - I think his name is Jerry Springer or something - now there's a train wreck of a show!!
