I'm sure you're right that he's the most prominent single figure to condemn them; but to be honest if I think of "Christian condemnation of Harry Potter" I think of American Protestantism, not the Pope, and my *guess* (though it is just a guess) is that the average religiously-fairly-uninformed British quasi-Anglican would have the same response. The American perspective may well be different of course, in which case you may well be right that the interviewer is likely to have mentioned it in the interview him/herself. You could try writing to her and asking whom she had in mind? She's probably much too grand to reply to that kind of thing these days but it would be interesting if she did.
