...although Michael Moore just might be considered one of today's modern-day muckrakers, and has produced some of the most poignant, eye-opening and entertaining documentaries, he still maintains a preponderance in presenting his material in a most exploitative and sensationalist manner....let's face it; that's his style, and that's what makes his revealing films so entertaining...
...as far as exploitative sensationalists go, Moore doesn't seem to necessarily make up, or embellish what he believes to be true; his tendencies lean much more toward uncovering obvious facts, while at the same time, 'dancing around', or out-and-out avoiding definite, but less-than-obvious truths...
...it is in this sometimes contradictory, and resulting controversial style of filmmaking, where Moore consistently finds himself bumping heads with prominent public figures and celebrities...
...at any rate, THESE observations, or should I say 'truths' are also what makes his films so entertaining, both as a compelling exhibition of revealing facts, coupled with an almost definite 'National Enquirer'-like appeal...

As with all movies even documentaries you see the facts that come from the person speaking or directing. Though I believe 70% is fact some is BS but than he takes what he needs to make a movie and prove his point. Facts come from those speaking so they are curved to their point of view. The only thing proven could be his numbers and such. The truth and facts are always given by those that win the fight.

Ya - I'm convinced his documentaries are based on truth....but he twists them so much so that they're in his favor.
