At 8:40 pm EDT, the news feeds monitored by NewsNow shows a lot of 
links to stories about the name of book 6, but nothing on when it 
will be released.

Many news feeds are taped and replayed, so the fact it was repeated 
might only mean they are repeating an error or speculation. IIRC, 
the names of the last 2 books were released about a year before the 
books themselves, so it is possible.  When the story starts "JK 
Rowlings publisher has confirmed that book 6 will be published on 
(day/month)" *then* I will believe it.
