Of course show's statuses are kept secret, until the announcement is made. But the announcement being made is not when the decision of the show coming back or not is made, that is already decided and discussed by execs, creators, actors, etc. beforehand. What this person is impling is the status of the show is not decided until a press announcement is made, and that's simply not true. I'm pretty sure OUAT renewals have been made early "unofficially" in the past. For example, Josh Dallas infamously confirmed Season 5 was happening weeks before an official announcement had been made.
