Seguro para Podcasters

You publish conversations to the internet permanently. Defamation, copyright, and privacy claims are one episode away.

Media Publisher Content Liability Digital Business

Why podcasters need coverage

Every episode you publish is a permanent public record. A guest who claims you misrepresented them, a copyright holder who finds their music in your intro, a subject who claims defamation — podcasting creates media liability exposure that grows with every download.

Most podcasters don't think of themselves as publishers, but legally that's exactly what you are. The same laws that apply to newspapers and TV stations apply to your RSS feed. Media liability insurance exists specifically for this.

Real risks podcasters face

Publishing is powerful. It's also legally exposing.

Guest claims defamation

You discuss a public figure or company critically. They claim your statements were false and damaging. Media liability covers legal defense and potential settlement — which can exceed $50,000 even for frivolous claims.

Copyright claim on music or clips

Using a song, sound effect, or news clip without proper licensing. A takedown notice becomes a demand letter. Media liability covers copyright defense.

Sponsor dispute over ad reads

A sponsor claims your ad read misrepresented their product or didn't meet contractual terms. Professional liability covers the claim.
