At PopularMechanics.com, Morgan Leigh Manning provides this within her posted article:
"In recent years, at least two federal courts of appeals have explicitly recognized the right to record the actions of on-duty police officers. In 2011's Glik v. John Cunniffe, the First Circuit ruled that a man wrongly arrested for recording police officers could sue the arresting officers for violating his First Amendment rights. The Court found a broad First Amendment right to record on-duty government officials in public, stating, "[G]athering information about government officials in a form that can readily be disseminated to others serves a cardinal First Amendment interest in protecting and promoting 'the free discussion of government affairs.'"
