What Insurance Covers Libel and Slander?
Cyber insurance may cover some libel and slander claims tied to a covered cyber incident; general liability or media liability may fit other publication claims.
The NAIC-published study says general liability personal-and-advertising-injury wording can include certain oral or written publication offenses; media liability may suit businesses that publish or create content.
Check exclusions for knowing falsity, prior publication, media or internet operations, and the policy’s reporting trigger. Tell the insurer if publishing or website work is part of your business.
