JK Rowling on tabloids: it was like 'being held hostage'
During two hours of evidence, Rowling listed incidents of harassment by tabloid reporters and photographers: ``There were two particularly bad periods. It really was like being under siege or being held hostage. After the birth of each of my subsequent children, for a week, it was impossible for me to leave the house without being photographed.''
Despite planning a laid-back marketing campaign for her upcoming novel for adults, Harry Potter novelist JK Rowling will have make ``a slew of promotional TV stops,'' including visits to The Daily Show and Good Morning America.
