Fair as in it doesn't point fingers exclusively at Koresh and it doesn't point fingers exclusively at the ATF and the government. It takes time to cover BOTH sides of the conflict with the same grace and poise. It's honestly the first Documentary on it that I have seen that doesn't totally blame Koresh. It's the first time that I have seen people come on and actually defend him.

It leaves you with the feeling that, yeah, they needed to take it down because of child abuse alone, but the ATF over-stepped it's boundaries to the point of violating their rights. It leaves you with the feeling that both sides were absolutely wrong, and, honestly, you don't often get that with this subject.
