[edit] Neutral Tone

The expression "he happens to be gay" does not sound very encyclopedic or neutral. It sounds like Murdock wrote it himself (i.e. like a self-written bio). This should be written in a factual manner, like "Murdock is gay." I have changed the expression to "Murdock himself is gay." Westwind273 14:33, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Please do not revert to "happens to" without explaining here on the Talk page. Westwind273 20:05, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
