BDC News

The Walt Disney Company has announced a multi-year distribution agreement with YouTube TV, restoring all Disney-owned networks—including ESPN and ABC—to the platform after a tense two-week blackout. The deal immediately returns Disney’s full suite of channels to subscribers nationwide, ensuring uninterrupted access to major sports, news, and entertainment programming.

The new agreement expands viewer flexibility and strengthens long-term content delivery strategies as both companies adapt to evolving consumer habits.

“This new agreement reflects our commitment to exceptional entertainment and evolving with how audiences choose to watch,” Disney Entertainment Co-Chairmen Alan Bergman and Dana Walden, along with ESPN Chairman Jimmy Pitaro, said in a joint statement. “We’re pleased our networks are back in time for fans to enjoy this weekend’s programming, including college football.”

The resolution ends widespread subscriber frustration and marks a strengthened partnership between Disney and YouTube TV moving forward.
