July 9, 2010 \ DIVERSE NEWS \- In this audio tape exclusive from radaronline.com has Hollywood actor, Mel Gibson, using the n-word which is not a crime but aligned with political correctness.
It sounds like a scripted argument from a provocative movie. But is it or was the recording legal?

In many states, it is illegal to record someone’s telephone conversation. I asked this question to the FBI before, and an agent told me that in order for someone to record a telephone conversation with someone else, they actually would need written authorization as it is a federal crime under wiretaps.

So, is this just a provocative stunt to have Mel in the news again? I mean, with all his money and past problems with the police with the ‘Jews’ incident, it makes you wonder if he’s just trying to get press.
He is apparently being dumped by big time WME Entertainment.

One thing I know, all Hollywood is a fantasy land with scripts and cues even in the actors personal lives. I grew up with many Hollywood movies using the N-word and the actors were never censored.

I believe some folks have got it in for Gibson.
