And Rita Skeeter is of course horrible, the worst kind of journalist I can think of.
I was thrilled when Hermione got her! If she'd have stepped on her...wow...thats murder..
I think Hermione should do something like expose all her lies, tell the truth
behind her "quotes" and everything..And Rita gets arrested for libel..thrown in Azkaban..ooh..
I think I'm drifting.
I know you can't really stop the papparazzi, so it's best to ignore them
but this woman is capable of doing a lot of damage, right?
Wonder what Rita is going to do when she gets out of captivity...it could get ugly.


Me:  Two things about Rita.  I wonder if she ever actually read anything she "wrote" about anybody.  She had a magick pen for doing that!

Also, Rita very well may be a dead thread now in future books as Hermoine has a very effect piece of blackmail to use against her.  I got the feeling that being an unregistered animagous is a pretty serious offense.  Dumbledore was impressed about Sirius, James and Peter pulling it off but I've always had the feeling that Dumbledore shares Harry's (and his father's) attitudes about "rule breaking".  But when Hermoine said that if she doesn't learn to stop telling lies she's "going to spill the beans on her", she said it like that was a very serious threat.  And with all her reading, Hermoine would know.  Huggs Becky
