I don't think this applies in a public area, only to private conversations. Otherwise news cameras would not be able to record anywhere without first obtaining the consent of everyone who says anything in range of the microphone.

Maybe other states have different laws then CA though that make even public conversations require 2 party consent? How do news crews record anything if this is the case?
