I dispute parts of dictionary.com's definition.
I studied film for three years and anyone with a basic knowledge of the history of the docu mentary film knows that ALL docu mentaries are biased to one particular point of view or another. Why? Because the person or people responsible for it have a point of view. "Objectivity" doesn't come into it. There is no "objective" docu mentary because everything is subjective.
But that's not what's at issue here. The real question is did Michael Moore present lies as fact?
