📰 Disney Content Goes Dark on YouTube TV After Contract Talks Collapse
📰 Disney Content Goes Dark on YouTube TV After Contract Talks Collapse
In a surprising move, Disney’s entertainment channels have gone dark on YouTube TV after both companies failed to reach a new distribution agreement before the deadline. The blackout affects popular networks like ABC, ESPN, FX, Disney Channel, and National Geographic, leaving millions of YouTube TV subscribers without access to some of their favorite shows and live sports.
Negotiations reportedly broke down over pricing and carriage terms, with both sides unable to find common ground. YouTube TV stated that they “made every effort to reach a fair deal,” while Disney expressed disappointment, emphasizing that their “proposals were in line with market standards.”
This standoff comes at a time when streaming competition is intensifying, and content owners are pushing for higher fees to offset declining cable revenues. Industry experts believe that unless an agreement is reached soon, both companies risk losing subscribers to rival services like Hulu + Live TV and Sling.
For now, YouTube TV users will have to do without Disney-owned content—unless the two giants return to the negotiation table and strike a new deal in the coming days.
