I enjoyed the interview - very Rita Skeeter-ish.

Oooh - good question!  I've been wondering about that too.  Unlike 
Lockhart, who I did not like at all, and who seems to have already 
served his purpose, I think there's more to Rita Skeeter than what we 
know now.  JKR left it open-ended when Hermione mentioned that Skeeter 
promised to keep her quill to herself for a year.  Will she be back in 
book 6 (after a year)?

I can't decide if Skeeter will be back with a vengeance and become 
even more of a nuisance to the troika, or if she might somehow become 
a helper to them.  I don't see her getting involved in the fight 
against Voldie, though.  She's too selfish to follow anyone, either 
way.

I didn't really answer your question, Morag.  Sorry for musing and 
rambling!
