Google’s battle with Disney over YouTube TV is only getting started, and Google just rejected Disney’s request to temporarily restore ABC to the platform so that US viewers can access coverage of elections taking place today (November 4).

YouTube TV subscribers have lost access to Disney-owned networks like The Disney Channel, ESPN, ABC and FX after the two companies failed to agree a contract extension for the content to stay on the live tv streaming service. As of now, those channels are blacked out and for sports fans that’s a bit of a problem.

While "College GameDay" was not shown on YouTube TV, Pat McAfee, who has excited college football fans since joining the show as an analyst in 2022, streamed the entire three-hour broadcast on his X account.

The YouTube TV, Disney content battle continues, and a new report sheds light on how consumers might be feeling as a direct result.

YouTube TV begins rolling out $20 credits to subscribers amid the ongoing Disney channel blackout affecting ESPN, ABC, and National Geographic.
