With the day of decision coming and subsequent media articles, blogs and commentary on it's heels, do you feel the media has been accurate, sympathic so far, or just the opposite? Do you think negative reporting will harm J.K. Rowling's reputation and future publications? Has media reporting harmed fandom? What is the motivation of the media?

Sorry guys! I had thought I'd locked all of the related topics that I moved over from the PotterCast forum, but this one flew under my radar somehow. As I mentioned in my announcement post, we're closing all threads related to the case except for the main thread's incarnations. Sorry for the confusion!
