26. I was wondering about this.
In Minnesota it is illegal to tape record a conversion without the other party's knowledge. I was wondering if it would be the same in that state.

Also, if the tape is edited to change the meaning of the conversation and then used to smear a private citizen and get her fired from her job, she might have civil recourse.

It also may be illegal to purposely pursue someone with expressed intent of destroying their livelihood. This is exactly what Glenn Beck has been engaging in. The likes of Glenn Beck and his ilk are treading on some very thin ice.
