A store manger of the Barnes and Nobles store in Coral Gables, Florida told truthorfiction.com that someone did put the monkey book in the center of their Obama book display but it was not a store employee.

The window display was accessible to anyone in the store, including customers where some trickster replaced an Obama book in the center of the display for the book on monkeys.

The manager also said that a formal apology was issued by Barnes and Nobles.

We have called the organizer of the boycott and are awaiting a reply.
