Michael Moore does stick to the facts... But only the ones he wants you to hear. But still the guy is 100% entertainment, which is the point at the end of the day lol.
OT: Hmmm, I think we have strayed from the point of the thread somewhere.

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.

See "I heart Nintendo's" last post...
I wouldn't say he was blind and deaf.
It's just... people want to believe what they want to believe. That's one of the worst things about the internet as well... unlike here... lots of places are breeding grounds for a singluar viewpoint which is reenforced by validation no matter how crazy said belief is. It only takes a handful of people across the world now to keep an idea alive... and not all ideas are good ones. That's another topic for another day though.
To me... entertainment documentries are the equivlent of a fanboy forum post.
