I think JKR in letting Harry's story be printed in the Quibbler is
letting us see that some of the stories are based in fact. That this
is a paper willing to print things other papers won't. I do think that
Fudge could have been trying to take over Gringotts. Key persons
-think Umbridge- do not like magical creatures with near-human
intelligence (pg 754 OOP american). Fudge could be trying to get rid
of the goblins. As for cooking them in pies I do not think this is
true but if you think something is "sub human" you might not have a
problem killing it. How far would Fudge go? I think it could be
setting up events in later books on who sides with Lord Thingy and who
does not. So how far will Fudge go?
