“The law holds publishers independently liable for content published. Given the significant expense involved in defending even a bogus claim of infringement or libel, every publisher is wise to carry media insurance at an appropriate level of coverage. The policy that Rob and his team have negotiated includes broad coverage for print and electronic media as well as in-house advertising material, leaves settlement decisions in the hands of the publisher, and pays defense costs on a current basis. These are valuable components of a media policy,” says Brian Flagler of Flagler Law Group and provider of ECPA’s Legal Hotline Services. One of the unique elements of the program is the synergy with the ECPA’s Legal Hotline Services, an ECPA program that helps subscribing publishers avoid claims of libel, invasion of privacy, copyright, or trademark infringement. If the publishers join the ECPA Legal Hotline Service then they can save even more on their insurance premiums with the Media Liability Program.
Our team at Ministry Risk Management, a division of Six & Geving Insurance Agency, is located in Colorado and has a strong network of insurance companies and services. We have been working with ECPA for over five years, and in addition to the Media Liability coverage, we can provide traditional insurance coverage such as Property & Liability, Auto Insurance, Workers’ Compensation, Umbrella coverage, Errors & Omissions, Director’s & Officers Liability and International coverage. We specialize in providing many value-added resources in addition to the association insurance program.
Serving the Christian community has been the focus of the Ministry Risk Management Team for over 6 years now. Our vision at Ministry Risk Management is to be a leading provider of insurance and risk management resources for those serving the cause of Christ. It is our desire to benefit the Kingdom of God here on earth under His guidance and blessing. We are pleased to be partnering with ECPA to provide a Media Liability Insurance Program that will have lower premiums and customized coverages for publishers and we look forward to serving the membership of ECPA.
