The interview, or rather television program, that we are talking
about can be found here (actually a paraphrase by some of the
television viewers, after it had aired on 28 Dec 2001):

The news report that you had linked to, referring to this program can
be found here:
http://www.ananova.com/entertainment/story/sm_480162.html
Comparing the two, we have from the Ananova news report:
'She even hints that one of the long-standing characters will be
wiped out in the forthcoming three books.'
And from the viewer's report on the television program:
'More people are going to die. One death is going to be horrible to
write. IT HAS TO BE.'
The Ananova news report:
'There will also be further romance following on from Harry Potter
And The Goblet Of Fire in which he has a date with a quidditch team-
mate - and develops more of an interest in pal Hermione.'
And the viewer's report on the television program:
'There was no mention of any specific relationships beginning, but
it's clear that one of the sub-stories of the next book is
relationships and lurrrve.'
Comparing the two reports, it is clear that the viewer's report of
the aired television program shows that it reveals a good deal less
than the pre-airing reports, of which the Ananova report was one, had
claimed.
Here is a discussion thread about this whole mess from just before to
just after the program first aired:
