By Dianna Dilworth

The publisher also revealed that they would not edit the e-book or hardcover and said that they would not print a paperback edition. The Associated Press has the scoop:

[Cary] Goldstein said there are no plans to pull the book entirely, although that decision seems unlikely to be needed. “Cosby” has sold poorly in recent months and the hardcover ranked No. 350,880 on Amazon.com’s best-seller list as of late Wednesday afternoon.
