Another TV provider fails to reach an agreement with Sinclair Broadcasting....
Sinclair Broadcasting, the company that owns the distribution rights to the Fox Regional Sports networks (FoxSports KC) has failed to come to an agreement with YouTubeTV, so the FoxSports networks have been pulled. This means no Royals. At first I was pissed at Google (who owns YouTubeTV), thinking they were trying to be the corporate giant that they are and were just trying to strong-arm Sinclair into a deal. Then I looked into it a little more. Apparently YouTubeTV is just the next in a growing list of providers that have failed to "come to an agreement" with Sinclair Broadcasting. The list currently stands at Dish Network, Sling, Fubotv, and now YouTubeTV with more to come I assume. So basically, Sinclair is a bunch of greedy ****ing pricks that are holding the FoxSports networks hostage from providers and the ones who are suffering are of course, we the people. Guess I'm going to have to find a cough* cough* questionably legal way of watching the Royals this year. Greedy assholes.
