I personally think a documentary shouldn't have to have stuff spliced together and old footage in order to make a point. I think, if the subject is strong, it should be able to stand on it's own.

my main point is not about his message. I think everyone should be able to say what they please in whichever medium, but to call his work a documentary is insulting to those who actually make real documentaries.
