Mr. McNicoll,

Correct. Michael Moore's films are not documentary. They certainly
convey his political opinion. By the strictest definition, they are
propaganda films.

However, films now (and always) are/were either fiction or
"documentary". Fiction films depict the imaginary propagandising of
the creator. Similarly, current "documentary" films only represent a
more blatant and obvious form of propaganda.

Therefore, all films are propaganda, the systematic propagation of a
doctrine or cause or of information reflecting the views and interests
of those advocating such a doctrine or cause.

Your statement is moot and obvious. Films and all other public
commentary must only project opinions based on the subjective
experience of the author.

For more information on subjectivity, consult your nearest Heidegger
or Husserl text.

By the way, both of our posts are also propaganda. So, don't take me
seriously. And I won't take you seriously either ; )
