MINISTRY CALLS POTTER, DUMBLEDORE LIARS!
HARRY POTTER: LEGEND OR LIAR?
HARRY POTTER: LEGEND OR LIAR?
After the startling events of the Triwizard Tournament that left one student dead, a famous Auror in the hospital and the entire Wizarding World asking questions without answers, the Ministry of Magic finally gave its official statement today, followed by other actions that no one saw coming. Percy Weasley stood before the press today in place of current Minister Cornelius Fudge and read the following;
"Though the Ministry regrets the death of Cedric Diggory, we have no evidence to confirm that You-Know-Who has indeed returned. After the mysterious events surrounding the Triwizard Tournament, Hogwarts champion Harry Potter refused to be questioned about what happened to Diggory. However, due to Potter's past and history with the press, this case has been dismissed as a mere demand for attention, and Diggory's death an accident."
Shortly afterward, it was also announced that Albus Dumbledore, current Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, was no longer Chief of the Wizengamot, and that due to his failure to find a replacement teacher for the post of Defence Against the Dark Arts, it would be filled by Dolores Umbridge, Under Secretary to the Minister himself. Readers who wish to remain anonymous had this to say on the issue.
"Potter and Dumbledore have done more for the world than most could do in four lifetimes. I'd hate to be the Minister when this mess turns out to be his fault for not heeding their warnings in the first place."
Recent polls show that a very small percentage of people actually believe the account given by Dumbledore, apparently from the mouth of Potter himself. But what is yet to come, we have no idea.
This has been Mystery Prophet reporting.
