Would the Zapruder Film qualify?

No. See the definition in post #14.

The Zapruder film was neither a preplanned filming nor was it done for titillation purposes or for profitable sale. Zapruder just happened to be filming a Presidential motorcade on a sunny day.

Similarly, news footage of deaths and carnage does not qualify; indeed, it is rarely ever seen, and is edited out, unless it's Al Jazeera.

R. "Bud" Dwyer's suicide comes to mind.
