Reporters Shield is a membership program that protects newsrooms from potentially fatal legal costs.  

The program is for print/online media outlets and NGOs that report in the public interest. 

Reporters Shield will identify qualified lawyers to respond to legal threats and pay for legal representation up to a pre-agreed limit.

The program will also help members to avoid lawsuits by providing training, resources, and pre-publication legal risk assessments of particular reports.
