Libel and First Amendment Insurance Plan
This program is the standard of the
broadcast industry: from errors and omissions to website content to
copyright/trademark coverage. For over 25 years, NAB and AXIS PRO
have partnered to make this exclusive NAB member program
the most comprehensive in the nation.
NAB media liability coverage is designed to protect against the high
cost of defending claims or paying damage awards and securing the
freedom to program, speak out and report fearlessly. AXIS PRO and the
NAB
have created the only media liability policy to offer the following
coverage features in one policy form:
- Defense outside the limit
- Punitive damages insured up to the policy limit (where allowed by
law)
- Broad form E&O for BI/PD claims arising from broadcast
matter
- Optional $500,000 First Amendment legal expense
- Each loss limit with no annual aggregate
- Personal injury perils coverage
- Copyright and trademark coverage
- Newsgathering coverage
- Incidental publishing coverage

The plan offers you the most comprehensive coverage available at special
member pricing. And the plan addresses claims your general liability
policy won't. NAB endorses the Plan, which continues to respond to
member needs - protecting stations against loss and preserving editorial
and programming freedom. You can also download the Buyer
Checklist.

Libel/First Amendment Insurance Plan Application, and fax to (202)
