Why the Media Needs Insurance Coverage


Media Liability Insurance

Unhinged…Crazy…Fake

With adjectives like these depicting the media, newspapers, magazines, book publishers, radio stations, TV stations, film program producers, authors and advertisers are at the center of a hotly debated American tradition of free speech, fortifying the need for liability and other forms of insurance coverage.

Related liability policies focus on the media’s accountability to other people and organizations in regard to occurrences of copyright infringement, plagiarism, libel, slander and other comparable insurance claims in regard to personal and advertising injury, contingent on a self-insured retention.

For the most part, insurance forms incorporate defense coverage as a segment of the insurance limits.

 


Media Promotions Insurance

“It’s your chance to win big…”

Both printed and radio broadcast promotions as well as those on social media have the ability to increase market share, draw advertisers and add lines of viewing.

Promotions include tactics that directly influence listener/radio/reading loyalty:

  • Necessitating listening audiences to tune into the radio station continuously so as to collect essential cues
  • Expecting radio station listeners to pinpoint the recording musician who caroled sound-bites of 5 tracks woven together.
  • Requiring readers of printed and social media promotions to email or mail in requested info.


This type of insurance shields the print or radio broadcast promotion from the amount of winnings or winners exceeding the prize budgeting cost.
