Authority in Documents

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=qgWkwUzumZg

All of the experts seem calm and confident, and for some reason middle aged men, they are allsitting behind a desk, making it seem like they are the boss.
Positives include stronger persuasion of point and authority to that point
Negatives include continuity if the 'expert' signs up to another documentary with a different opinion
The Stereotype seems to be older men wearing suits, rarely are young men and women shown.

Do Documentaries Show Reality?

Authentic is something that is truthful or real, there are no major differences between the words real and authentic, aside from spelling so no, there are no differences between real and Authentic

Authentic                      The interviews, the facts that were given, the accounts.

Inauthentic                     The footage of the events
