New edition of 'Huckleberry Finn" drops the 'n' word

[tb4000]

I will admit that it doesn't need to be changed, as it is honestly a staple of the book. Most people that have read the book in school or for anything realize why the term was used, and most people never really have raised any ire over it. They're just trying to spark something with this, that's all.
