Harper Lee was emphatic that she wanted it published and always had wanted it published. It's her first novel and the one that was dear to her; it was editors/publishers who had her take some bits from it and expand them into TKAM.
She wasn't particularly thrilled that the media portrayed her as some helpless, mindless idiot who needed to be protected, either. She even went so far as to say that people who thought her book was published against her wishes and she'd been taken advantage of shouldn't read it because they wouldn't like the story.

Source please?

Absolutely any reputable news media that followed the story after NPR and the NYT made their accusations. It's even on the GSAW Wikipedia page. Harper Lee even gave at least one interview about it before her death a month ago.

Source please? (non wikipedia)

Here's one about the investigation. I can't do all.of your googling for you though as have to head to work shortly. This got major press in all the publications that carry the syndicated NYT column that made the accusations.

The only thing on Wikipedia that supports your claim is, " Flynt said he found Lee capable of giving consent and believes no one will ever know for certain the terms of said consent."

Not exactly a stellar endorsement. "She consented to it. Totally."

...that's not really what happened. She didn't speak directly to the media at all.
