A documentary is documenting something that has actually happened.
They provide the audience with an insight in to a topic they may not know about.
Documentaries inform and can educate an audience about a topic. This must be done in an entertaining way, to sustain the interest of the audience. The audience has more choice because of audience fragmentation due to digital and satellite television. There are specific channels created to documentaries e.g. the documentary channel. This is an example of narrowcasting.
