It can be and perhaps we can argue that documentaries have gotten away from that pure form, but it doesn't have to be...atleast not in todays making of films.

Certainly, and I'd say it's a part of a much larger trend. Just look at the media recently - the ideal of "fair and balanced" seems to be disappearing. Reading the newspaper is like reading one big editorial. The news on TV just reeks of bias. It seems like people want to be told what to believe, and the media has followed the trend. It's a bit disconcerting.
