From today's MHP article, with a NSFW word in the title:

Update, Barnes & Noble now recalling Amazon books from its stores: In a follow-up post, Laura Hazard Owen at PaidContent reports that “Barnes & Noble headquarters sent an email to its branches around the country telling them to pull the Amazon titles.” (In addition to Penny Marshall’s memoir, Own reports that the chain is carrying Jessica Valenti’s Why Have Kids?) She also gets a statement from Barnes & Noble, which flatly states that “Our policy has not changed. We are not carrying Amazon titles.”

Owen wonders if the glitch is “possibly because the company hadn’t stated its policy clearly enough to the stores and because local branches have always had a fair amount of latitude in choosing the titles they want to stock.” But given the scale of the problem—with books scattered throughout the country—I can only imagine the problem rests with Barnes & Noble headquarters.
