Will this be real-deal hard facts, or will the show be more along the lines of a Michael Moore documentary?" When we equate a Michael Moore "documentary" with the idea that it is constructed or fabrictaed, can we stop reffering to his films as "documentaries"? Anyways... The fact that there are doubts already regarding this Oliver Stone project I think answers the question. It's not like Stone has a history here with, er, history. :^) “One outstanding question in all of this, is to the factually accuracy of this new show.
