Oh is that what happened? Thats surprising if thats what it in fact was. As the show's been on for four seasons now, Id imagine the cameramen have developed quite a rapport with the Chapman family after this time, as well as A&E itself, which I think is shown in the way the network strongly stood up for Dog during the whole extradition affair. I'd think that if the cameras were rolling when Dog went on this rant, the cameraman would probably just look the other way on it and get rid of the tape(sort of like a travelling sportswriter who looks the other way on events happening on the team bus).
Or even if this was the case, you'd think A&E would at least not let them release the tape, considering Dog the Bounty Hunter is by far the station's #1 rated show, with 2.2 million viewers tuning in every week. I would really have a tough time believing it was anyone working within A&E who broke this story to the press. I'd have to figure the son or the son's girlfriend just brought in the tape of the answering machine to the press.
