He doesn't really stick to the facts though.

Personally I think "Entertainment documentries" are the worst thing that have ever happened to documentries.

I mean if people want to make shit up and confuse issues. That's what regular movies are for.

It's like those stupid made up news caster commercials bush ran. (Or whoever ran them anyway.)

 

 The idea of an entertainemnt documentary isn't really to get facts though, it is entertainment. To be hosent you wouldn have to be blind and deaf to not realise that half the stuff in entertainment documentaries shouldn't be taken seriously.

That said, I do enjoy them.

But I prefer real documetaries though lol.

The problem is that some people take Moore's work as legitimate, and run with it. That's the issue. For all we know, IHeartNintendo thinks Spinal Tap is still touring the US in selected venues.

The issue is that entertainment-documentaries that are presented as documentaries take away from legitimate ones, and water down what good they provide. Moore is the worst example of that. At least we all knew Marty DiBergi wasn't quite legitimate.

 



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
