I wonder who some of Dumbledore's other spies were/are.  Hope we find 
out. I think I would be bitter too if I had to spend all my days and 
nights some place just for protection.  Doesn't make for a good 
social life.  Yeah, I know his social skills are somewhat lacking, 
but no wonder!  And Rita Skeeter was at one of those trials.  I 
imagine she knows quite a bit herself.
