Exonerated by the Congressional investigators and by Senator (D) John Glenn of Ohio who was found to be culpable in intimidating the regulators who were the target for this 'scandal'. I am also certain that the fact that John Glenn (D) Senator from Ohio, was hand picked by the Obama Campaign to introduce Senator Obama at his most recent stump in Dayton Ohio. Ah, the Democrats have woven the cloth of the inconvenient truth, and yet the hide behind it every chance they get.

Or is it that there shouldn't be? Your final rhetorical question seems to be based on a notion that propaganda pieces and documentaries are or should be mutually exclusive, yet that is definitely not the case. It made feel like I was a High School English class and that I, along with the class, was being asked a rhetorical question by a teacher that barely gets the conversation ball rolling. That said-- I do wish 'Keating Economics' had more than one commentator. As is, it's not a very dynamic documentary. So there’s never any overlap between propaganda and documentaries?

NcCain was ivolved in the Keating Five scandal - it's a fact. I haven't seen the film in question, but would imagine it deals in the facts voters need to know about McCain and that's why it's being called a documentary. As public disclosure, it should have been noted by the author that spout.com's founder and CEO Rick DeVos is the son of failed Republican candidate for Michigan Governor (2006) and former chair of the Michigan Republican Party.
