YouTube TV is dropping Fox Regional Sports Networks from its channel lineup as a short-term extension is set to expire.
In a series of tweets, YouTube TV confirmed the “difficult decision.” Sinclair-owned RSNs will disappear from the live TV streaming service on October 1, 2020.
YouTube TV says that it hopes to bring Fox RSNs back in the future. Here are the tweets:
To bring you 85+ channels, we periodically renegotiate contracts with content owners. In February, we announced we had negotiated an extension with Sinclair to continue providing FOX Regional Sports Networks (RSNs) through the end of MLB, NHL and NBA seasons.

This was a difficult decision made after months of negotiations. We hope we can bring FOX RSNs back in the future. We thank you for your membership as we work to make YouTube TV the best streaming experience. You will receive an email today if you are impacted by this change.

Responding to another tweet, YouTube TV said there will be no price reduction as a result of this change. YouTube TV raised its starting price by $15 a month during the summer.
As of this writing, Hulu + Live TV and AT&T TV Now continue to offer Fox Regional Sports Networks.
