Serialization doc: usage of get_serializer()

Reported by: haavikko@… Owned by: Jacob

Description

At end of document http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/serialization/
there is example:

json_serializer = serializers.get_serializer("json")
json_serializer.serialize(queryset, ensure_ascii=False, stream=response)

serializers.get_serializer() returns a class object, not actual serializer instance.
The call to json_serializer.serialize fails with:

TypeError: unbound method serialize() must be called with Serializer instance as first argument (got QuerySet instance instead)
