YouTube proposes returning ABC, ESPN networks following Disney’s request
YouTube TV has proposed restoring Disney’s ABC and ESPN networks, in response to the entertainment giant’s earlier request to bring back ABC to the pay-TV platform for Election Day coverage.
Disney had earlier on Monday asked Google’s YouTube TV to restore ABC for Election Day coverage in service of public interest, just days after its networks went dark on the pay-TV platform.
“Your proposal would permit us to return Disney’s ABC stations only for a day and will cause customer confusion among those who may briefly see ABC on YouTube TV only to lose it again shortly after,” YouTube said in a blog post.
