God, are all documentaries in America like that? Like obviously biased? And scare-mongering? I couldn't watch more than a few minutes as it made me feel sick.
No, it's a lowest common denominator documentary from a broadcast network TV newsmagazine. A step up is the type of documentary you see on the Discovery or History channels. The highest form of documentary is cinéma vérité. All of the different types are made and produced in the USA.
It isn't a documentary to begin with, but an investigative news program (rather a sensational one at that). Can't speak for shows in non-English speaking countries, but I'm sure we all have shows like this one in our respective countries of residence. I've watched BBC Panorama episodes this year that are just as biased & fear-mongering for example. If you want serious American documentaries, sample PBS's Frontline or NOVA series (via file-sharing =]) before jumping to conclusions.
