WHITE SUPREMACISTS THREATEN TO KILL CHAPMAN

A group of hardcore white supremacists have put a bounty on DUANE 'DOG' CHAPMAN's head after he publicly apologised for racial slurs he was caught using in a taped conversation. The TV bounty hunter's son went public with the tape after Chapman lashed out at his Mexican girlfriend, calling her a "whore" and a "n**ger", during a family row. The National Enquirer then broadcast the tape on the internet, prompting a shamed Chapman to appear on CNN's Larry King Live to apologise for his ill-advised rant. And now it seems his apology has upset members of the Aryan Nation, who want to teach Chapman a lesson for bowing to pressure and apologising to African-Americans. Niger Innis, a spokesman for the Congress Of Racial Equality, tells U.S. tabloid the Globe that he has discovered the white supremacists want the bounty hunter dead - and they're offering $75,000 (GBP37,500) to anyone who'll carry out the job. Innis tells the publication, "Chapman told me himself that there was a bounty on his head from the white Aryan Nations. "They don't believe he is demonstrating enough white pride... Chapman's not only upset black America with his ugly taped talk, he's now drawn the wrath of the white supremacists too."
