ABC News Live is currently available on YouTube TV as well as on the standard YouTube platform. However, the primary ABC national channel isn't accessible on YouTube TV. A potential workaround is that your local ABC affiliate station might be included in your YouTube TV channel list. These local affiliates often broadcast some of the national programming. ABC is a Disney-owned entity, and occasionally, subscribers of both TV streaming services and traditional cable providers experience blackouts of Disney channels. Disney's ownership extends beyond what many realize, encompassing channels such as ESPN, ABC, History, Freeform, National Geographic, A&E, Lifetime, and more. It can be perplexing for viewers when one or several of these channels are available one day and then suddenly blacked out the next.
