was a British witch and journalist who specialised in writing poison-pen stories. These stories tended to be based on false information and misreported interviews. She wrote articles as a Gossip Correspondent for the Daily Prophet, as well as a few 'tell-all' biographies. She occasionally worked as a Quidditch commentator for World Cup games.[13] Skeeter preferred writing for the sake of publicity and wrote what she thought people would "like to read".
