Overview

  • Herring Networks confirmed a multi-year agreement that will launch One America News and A Wealth of Entertainment on YouTube TV’s base lineup by the fourth quarter of 2025.
  • With roughly 9.4–9.5 million subscribers, YouTube TV is set to become OAN’s largest distributor once the channels go live.
  • YouTube executive Justin Connolly said the addition broadens subscriber choice and gives OAN access to YouTube TV’s growing audience.
  • The timing overlaps with YouTube TV’s separate renewal talks with Fox Corp., and the companies agreed to a short-term extension after the 5 p.m. ET deadline to continue negotiations.
  • OAN previously lost carriage on DirecTV and Verizon, was readmitted to YouTube’s Partner Program last year, says it airs 16 hours of live weekday news, and still faces an active Dominion defamation case after other settlements.
