YouTube TV, ESPN, and Disney: the latest on the blackout

On October 31st, ESPN, ABC, Nat Geo, and over 20 other Disney-owned channels went dark on YouTube TV. As the two sides disagree about terms for a new content distribution contract, Google has accused Disney of trying to raise prices for its customers in an effort to boost its own Hulu + Live TV and Fubo offerings.

Meanwhile, Disney claims that Google is being unreasonable and seeking preferential treatment and below-market rates, and streamed College GameDay for free during the dispute. It’s quite different from their 2021 carriage blackout, which was resolved within a couple of days.

The two don’t seem any closer to an agreement at this point, as the war of words continues, and now Google is even giving YouTube TV customers a $20 credit for the inconvenience.

Read on below for all of the news and updates about Google and Disney’s ongoing battle.
