Rowling has previously received a lot of negative messages and, according to her, also threats after statements that critics saw as transphobic.
Rushdie was stabbed Friday during a lecture in New York state. A spokesperson for the author said on Saturday that he had spoken again. Rushdie, 75, is still in hospital and may lose an eye.
