Does Media Liability Cover Plagiarism?

Possibly, if the plagiarism claim fits a covered copyright or misappropriation offense; the policy may exclude intentional or prior-known conduct.

A claim may instead allege copyright infringement or misappropriation; the reviewed Hiscox form includes some such offenses while excluding some software and trade-secret claims.

Identify what was used, who supplied it, and how it was published. Check the offense grant, client-content and prior-knowledge terms, intentional-conduct exclusion, and reporting requirements.
