What Should Podcasters Check in Media Liability Insurance?

Media liability may cover podcasting when the policy includes the formats, platforms, guests, music, sponsors, and client work.

A media policy may include podcasting, but it may exclude client content, misleading advertising, licensing fees, or certain copyright claims. The reviewed Hiscox specimen names podcasting in an advertising definition; its other terms still limit coverage.

Describe your formats, platforms, music, sponsor reads, guests, and client projects. Check covered services, rights, endorsements, defense costs, and claim-reporting deadlines.
