Nowadays all calls to ATC operational ops rooms are to be recorded , I do not know the specific JFK procedures but it would be extremely unlikely if they were not recorded. As to have not heard about it , again talking from my Europan experience , those recordings can only be accessed by the persons involved including the supervisor and the incidents investigators, no way they would be leaked to the outside, The person doing this will be fired .
