FBI To Begin Monitoring Of US Talk Radio For Evidence Of Crimes
2011-10-15
If you call a radio talk show and get on the air, you might be recorded by the FBI.

The FBI has awarded a $524,927 contract to a Virginia company to record as much radio news and talk programming as it can find on the Internet. The FBI says it is not playing big brother by policing the airwaves, but rather seeking access to what airs as potential evidence.
"Unless there is some reason for investigation, the federal law and the constitution still protect the rights of citizens." -- FBI agent Greg Stejskal
Turns out, Mr. Stejskal, that the constitution protects the rights of citizens before, during and after an investigation.

To be an FBI special agent you have to have a law degree. Didn't they teach this in Con Law?
