YouTube TV and Fox have reached a distribution agreement that will keep Fox News, Fox Sports and other Fox channels available to subscribers, the companies confirmed on Thursday.

“Millions of Americans are relying on YouTube to resolve this dispute so they can keep watching the news and sports they want—including this week’s Big Game: Texas @ Ohio State,” Carr wrote on X. “Get a deal done Google!”
Both companies said the new deal ensures uninterrupted access to Fox programming on YouTube TV, which remains one of the largest online streaming bundles in the United States.
