You are exactly right about Michael Moore. Which is why Michael Moore's bullflop films need to be exposed for what they are in the discussion of foreign affairs: an attempt to influence foreign countries to view the United States in a negative light, thereby promoting Michael Moore's warped view of the United States, incidentally making him richer than he would become if he attempted to show full reality with his regurgitated material.

Moore knows exactly what he's doing and this is the image he wants to export of his country.

"The sad fact is a lot of people in the world see a "documentary" like "Bowling for Columbine" and then think it reflects average life here in the US. Moore knows exactly what he's doing and this is the image he wants to export of his country."
I don't know from where you get that impression. "Bowling for Columbine" is seen by those I know to be a film which tries to deal with gun deaths in general and gun deaths in the US in particular. It is not considered to have anything to do with average life in the US. Where is the source for your comment(which impugns both Moore and Europeans)?
