Need Help re: Downloading the Undownloadable

Somebody out there knows (or knows somebody else who knows) how to download undownloadable video.
Help?

I'm going to be working with a Professor who's studying the impacts of subtle racist language in the news. For online sources, she wants to save a local copy just in case the original source disappears. This isn't a problem when the source is text-based, but can become a problem when the source is video footage.

I'm using Firefox. I've been playing with footage from The Daily Show, just because I know that my Download Helper add-on doesn't see video streams from there, and I can't figure it out. I know there's gotta be a way.

Thanks, y'all.
