Pedantry: video is probably not manipulated ("has not been postprocessed"), but it is manipulative ("released with intent to manipulate audience"): I've seen similarly crappy, unedited videos from cheap dashcams. Indeed, it would make sense to buy the worst-quality scapegoat camera - you could then claim "see, it's really, really dark out there, nothing we could have done!"
