<p>The only issue is plausible deniability, which a phone interview
might have-- if you didn't tell the interviewee you were recording
and have that proof. The others are presumed to have a source
origin. Verbal conversations are subject to your notes, which you
always keep, in case there is litigation. <br>
</p>
<p>From there, you can say "in a phone interview" but that
information is superfluous. <br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span>Does it make any sense these days to
say—in an editorial story or column—that an interview was a
phone interview? </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>I DO see it making a sense when
“phone” is being used to differentiate where someone said
it, as in “not at the news conference I referenced, nor in
the blog post I quoted from. He said this particular comment
during a phone interview.”</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span>But when the only source of someone’s
quotes is in a phone interview, does it make sense any more
to say that? If I just quote them without giving a source,
isn’t it assumed that the source said it in an interview?
Any why differentiate from a phone versus an in-person
interview? From the reader’s perspective, what difference
does it make?</span></p>
