Each monthly issue comes out before the month it's labeled as. IOW, the Nov issue comes out at the end of October.

Allen's 60 minutes interview aired November 22, 1992.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2620744/

The item you linked from the Gainesville Sun is a blind item and reports one fact; that Farrow fired Dylan's psychologist. It may be that Allen was the leaker or it may not, but leaking one fact is rather different from what Mia & her friend do below:



There was an unwritten rule in Mia Farrow’s house that Woody Allen was never supposed to be left alone with their seven-year-old adopted daughter, Dylan. Over the last two years, sources close to Farrow say, he has been discussing alleged “inappropriate” fatherly behavior toward Dylan in sessions with Dr. Susan Coates, a child psychologist. In more than two dozen interviews conducted for this article, most of them with individuals who are on intimate terms with the Mia Farrow household, Allen was described over and over as being completely obsessed with the bright little blonde girl. He could not seem to keep his hands off her. He would monopolize her totally, to the exclusion of her brothers and sisters, and spend hours whispering to her.

She was fond of her daddy, but if she tried to go off and play, he would follow her from room to room, or he would sit and stare at her. During the school year, Allen would arrive early at Mia Farrow’s West Side Manhattan apartment, sit on Dylan’s bed and watch her wake up, and take her to school. At her birthday party last July, at Farrow’s country house in Bridgewater, Connecticut, he promised that he would keep away from the children’s table so that Dylan could enjoy her birthday party with her friends, but he seemed unable to do that. Allen, who was a fearful figure to many in the household, was so needy where Dylan was concerned that he hovered over her through the whole party, and when the cake arrived, he was right behind her, helping to blow out the candles...

If Mia & Maco wanted to try the case, they should have tried it in court, not in the media. El_Johns Feb 2014 #14
