Does Media Liability Cover Defamation?

Media liability may cover defamation arising from covered publishing or media work; the trigger, exclusions, and defense terms control.

The reviewed Hiscox form names defamation, libel, and slander, but exclusions and claim conditions can still remove coverage.

Check the covered-activity definition, knowing-falsity exclusion, retroactive date, reporting rules, retention, and whether defense costs reduce the limit.
