Twice  in one interview JKR made a comment about not loving 
Snape.  If she  keeps this up I might start to believe her!  What do 
the rest of you  think?  Are we to take it that he's really a
horrible 
man who is  useful in the fight against LV...and nothing more?

I think she's  teasing her sophisticated fans, while being a little 
bit worried about the  naive ones. I think she understands  
perfectly well that fear, especially make-believe fear, can be an 
aphrodisiac, but she also knows that it's far better to have a 
loving RL relationship with a gentleman of sterling character  
while daydreaming a bad-boy fantasy or two, than the other way 
around.
