Oh, believe me, you'll be reading the whole article! I think I couldn't fairly skip it after building up so much anticipation. :)
Kingsley is finally gaining some confidence to deal with Diggory. It helps to see that Diggory isn't invincible, and didn't manage to break down Harry's confidence and convince the Wizengamot before rescue arrived.
Draco couldn't have done it without the Veritaserum. I don't think that's a bad thing; it's temporary help, and he can't heal fully in front of the Wizengamot, anyway.
I don't know about Ron, but I like to think he would have appreciated it, yes.
I actually meant to involve Harry's film business more in the story at the beginning, but the story didn't go in the direction I'd planned for it to go in.
That line is indeed Firstfruits.
The news leaked to the Wizengamot from one of Diggory's corrupt Aurors (or simply from Diggory putting together the circumstances surrounding Harry and Ginny's breakup with the similar secrecy surrounding the way he had attacked Daphne. He might have visited Ginny himself).
Diggory believes that Harry's feeding off lust to drain magic is proof of incubus blood- or he wants to make others believe that.
I hope you have a good vacation, and I'm glad you've enjoyed the series.
