Factual:
“In television, factual genres include news reports, current affairs programmes, documentaries, public ‘events’ coverage, sports and leisure programmes, consumer programmes, and specialist programmes (history, religion, and so on). Even within genres acknowledged as factual (such as news reports and documentaries) ‘stories’ are told—the purposes of factual genres in the mass media include entertaining as well as informing.” OxfordReference.com
