“We are proud to see the value and relevance of local broadcasting being recognized as an important part of YouTube TV’s lineup,” said Dispatch Broadcast Group President Larry Delia. “Our stations’ network programming and market-leading news will now be even more accessible to our viewers. We’re thrilled to have worked with YouTube TV to make this possible.”
