"All Writing is Autobiography"

In “All Writing is Autobiography” Donald M. Murray is asking us as the audience to consider the notion that our personal experiences, beliefs, and attitudes are reflected in our writing. He claims that all writing is autobiographical. This article greatly relates to our Wikipedia assignment because Wikipedia is supposed to be an objective source. Many times personal opinion can get in the way of the true facts of the matter. A personal bias can form and the objectivity of the writing can be lost. Looking on Wikipedia, people do not want to read about how great Ohio Univeristy is. That is a matter of opinion. They want to read the facts about Ohio University. Murray does make an excellent point, when he says that no matter the genre of writing, there is always something from your life put into it. I think this is true to a degree. I can’t help but read articles on Wikipedia and think they all sound like they have been written by the same author.
