Restore Disney and ESPN on YouTubeTV


Restore Disney and ESPN on YouTubeTV
The Issue

YouTubeTV once provided a comprehensive and reliable service with the inclusion of both Disney and ESPN offerings. Many of us, including myself, specifically signed up for YouTubeTV to watch local and national football games. Imagine the disappointment and frustration we felt when Disney and ESPN were unexpectedly removed mid-season! It's not just about missing out on a few games; for football fans, it's about having a significant part of what was promised suddenly yanked away. This change has altered what many of us signed up for, severely impacting our viewing experience.
For countless subscribers, these channels are more than just an option—they're a necessity. The sudden removal leaves a void in our sports streaming options that no other channels can fill. Disney and ESPN are synonymous with comprehensive sports coverage, particularly football, and their absence from YouTubeTV leaves us scrambling for alternatives in the middle of a critical sports season.
This unexpected cut-off not only disrupts our commitment to sports but has also shaken our confidence in YouTubeTV's ability to maintain the channels necessary to justify our subscription fees. Many of us chose YouTubeTV as our primary streaming service because of its diverse offerings, convenience, and the promise of access to key sports channels without needing a traditional cable package.
To those in charge at YouTubeTV, we ask you to listen to your subscribers—your loyal customer base who believed in your ability to deliver exceptional service. We want Disney and ESPN restored to the lineup as they are crucial to both national and local football coverage.
We deserve uninterrupted access to the sports we love and consistently signed up to watch. Please negotiate with the relevant companies and resume carrying these channels immediately. Let us enjoy the remainder of the football season without further interruptions.
Sign this petition and urge YouTubeTV to bring back Disney and ESPN immediately to ensure uninterrupted sports coverage for all its subscribers.
