    <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>

            isn’t it assumed that the source said it in an interview?
            Any why differentiate from a phone versus an in-person
