The information on the Ray D'Arcy incident has been lifted directly from unison.ie

Please stop labelling Derek Mooney 'gay.' He has never actually stated that he is or not. This is libelious. If you insist on putting gay in front of his name can you back it up with evidence that is not secondary? As in not from a blog/discussion board? The Ray D'Arcy Show also does not count - he has never made a statement either way, or condoned any such statements made by others.

Saying someone is gay is neither libelous nor libelious.

[edit] Round 234: Feb 2008

Whats the problem if he is gay? and he is, he just needs to come out already and stop being so pathetic. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.160.95.204 (talk) 15:01, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

If you have advice for Derek, contact him. Inserting your opinions into the opening paragraph of his wikipedia bio aint the way to do it.--Rye1967 (talk) 19:35, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
