Just looking at this definition I think it more than reasonable for the public to expect some serious research and evidence from anyone doing a documentary. If they want to make propaganda, then it should not be called a documentary. I have no problem with Moore making his movie and including or excluding whatever he wants. I do have a problem with his use of the word "documentary" to describe it. It implies a factual nature that Moore exploited for his own ends.
