USATODAY.com - New 'Potter' movie sneaks in spoilers for upcoming books

USA Today quotes Rowling, from an interview released by Warner Bros.:

"[The Dementors] are just as frightening as I imagined, just superb," she says. "One of the biggest themes in the book is Harry's conquering the dementors. And the dementors for me were about depression, and not just sadness. I think Alfonso's really done a great job on that, in showing what that can feel like and the circumstance in which you become vulnerable to that."

Australian article about British programme maker Anne Wood:

[Wood] worries that the frequent putdowns of children's television are devaluing what the industry is doing, and that less money will be allocated, thus reducing quality. As a former publisher, Wood again uses a comparison between books to flesh out her point. "If you write a children's book you require huge amounts of imagination but you do not require huge amounts of very expensive technology to do it with," she says.
