I prefer the following progression:

"We have the term 'documentary', it applies to some things like you  
see on the Discovery channel and so forth. There is also  
'mockumentary', you know, like Spinal Tap. But for Michael Moore, we  
have reserved the term 'crockumentary'. He is the master of the genre;  
all other propaganda is but a poor imitation, seen through a dim glass."
