Commercial General Liability/Radio and Television Insurance

Protecting Your Broadcast Business with Commercial General Liability Insurance

Radio and television stations operate in a fast-paced, high-exposure industry where one misstep can lead to costly claims. Whether it’s a defamation lawsuit over a controversial broadcast, a slip-and-fall injury at a studio or copyright infringement claims, Radio and Television Commercial General Liability Insurance is essential for mitigating financial risks.


Why Is General Liability Insurance Crucial for Broadcasters?

Broadcasting networks, production companies and on-air personalities face unique liabilities. A guest injured on set, damage to third-party equipment during production or allegations of false advertising can result in legal battles. Coverage typically includes bodily injury, property damage and personal and advertising injury protection, safeguarding your business against unforeseen incidents.


Real-World Risk Examples

  • A live news segment results in a defamation lawsuit, costing a network, millions in settlements.
  • A station-sponsored event leads to an audience member injury, triggering a liability claim.
  • A production team accidentally damages rented studio space, requiring costly repairs.
