Beth Chapman Explains How Taxpayers Paid Jerry Sandusky's Bond (VIDEO)
by Jason Hughes, posted Nov 18th 2011 12:30AM
Beth Chapman may be a reality television star on 'Dog the Bounty Hunter,' but that's only her second gig. Her primary occupation is as a bail bondsman, so who better to explain how the taxpayers wound up footing the bill for Jerry Sandusky's release on 'The Rosie Show' (Weeknights, 7PM ET on OWN).Chapman explained that Sandusky got a PR bond, which is usually reserved for first-time offenders of minor "scuffles." It gets suspicious when you consider that this was done on a Saturday and with a judge associated with Sandusky's charity presiding. Thus, the outrage that has occurred this week, or "the pack of wild moms," as Chapman called them, and Rosie O'Donnell is proudly a part of.
Dog the Bounty Hunter gets a new "leash" on life

Dog the Bounty Hunter will be finding its way back to the A&E network. The network executives who are his masters have decided to give Duane "Dog" Chapman a second chance after he was caught on tape saying racial slurs about one of his son's girlfriends. A&E spokeman Michael Feeney even said that he believed Chapman wasn't a racist.The show involves Chapman and his crew (which includes his fifth wife Beth and some of his kids) chasing down bail jumpers in Hawaii and other states. He previously had gotten in trouble with the Mexican government for his actions (bounty hunting is illegal in that country).
When I think of Dog the Bounty Hunter, I tend to think of the satire done on an episode of South Park when Cartman played Dog (loved it when Cartman parodied the philosophical rhetoric of Chapman which he does while taking prisoners to jail). Reruns will begin on A&E on June 25th with original episodes starting a few weeks later.
The top 10 bad-ass women of reality TV

So, I was going to do a list about the most villainous women of reality TV but then I thought...wouldn't a list of bad-ass women be way more interesting? Being bad is overrated (almost as overrated as being good). But being bad-ass, now that's a tricky balancing act, one that is way more intriguing.This list therefore is dedicated to the women of reality TV that make being bad look oh so good. And no, Omarosa Stallworth-whatever is NOT on the list. I'll explain why after the jump.
