The National Football League is finalizing a deal for the rights to its subscription-only package of games known as Sunday Ticket with Google's YouTube TV, according to people familiar with the matter. Goodell said earlier that the league aimed to announce a rights deal with Sunday Ticket by the end of the fall. The Sunday Ticket package has been the NFL's only set of media rights that has yet to be renewed through 2030. The deal with YouTube TV comes after various media operators, including Amazon , Apple and Disney's ESPN, considered the rights to the property.

Section 230 allows for online platforms to engage in good faith content moderation while shielding them from being held responsible for their users' posts. Both the district and appeals courts agreed that Section 230 protected Google from liability for hosting the content. Though it did not take a position on whether Google should ultimately be found liable, the Department recommended the appeals court ruling be vacated and returned to the lower court for further review. But, it added, the claims about "YouTube's use of algorithms and related features to recommend ISIS content require a different analysis." The DOJ said the appeals court did not adequately consider whether the plaintiffs' claims could merit liability under that theory and as a result, the Supreme Court should return the case to the appeals court so they can do so.
The government has yet to come back with TikTok with new requests on how to address the concerns, the Journal reported based on unnamed sources. TikTok confirmed it has not received an update from the government about any unresolved concerns. The two sides had reached broad agreements about storing U.S. user data on Oracle servers in the U.S., the Journal reported, moving it from TikTok data centers in Virginia and Singapore. U.S. officials and lawmakers have been vocal about their security concerns with TikTok. Cowen analysts wrote Wednesday that Meta's Reels, short-form videos similar to those on TikTok, "would be the biggest beneficiary" of a TikTok ban, followed by YouTube's Shorts.
Donald Trump will continue his legal fight against Twitter despite his ban being lifted by Elon Musk. Lawyers for Trump argue that the Twitter ban was "contrary to First Amendment principles," and amounted to "overtly partisan censorship," according to court documents. Despite Trump's Twitter account being reinstated, Coale said the former president had no intention to drop the case without reaching an agreement on terms to end the dispute, per Bloomberg. Coale said there had been no discussions with Twitter since Musk reinstated his account. Trump has repeatedly vowed to stay on Truth Social, a platform he founded, rather than return to Twitter if his ban was lifted by Musk.
Andrew Caballero-Reynolds | AFP | Getty ImagesSocial media platforms including Meta's Facebook and Instagram, Twitter, TikTok and Google's YouTube are readying themselves for another heated Election Day this week. The company is once again banning new political ads in the week before the election, as it did in 2020. Political ads, including information on how much money was behind them and how much they were viewed, are included in the company's transparency report. The NYU and Global Witness study found YouTube performed the best out of the platforms it tested in blocking ads with election misinformation.

YouTube and Meta look to short-form video as a way to revive declining ad revenue. Creators will be the key to enticing brands to advertise on short-form video apps. Meta, which reported a 3.6% year-over-year decline in ad sales, is also betting big on its short-form video format Reels. But even as Meta and YouTube lean into short-form video, advertisers still say TikTok comes out on top. But TikTok is still their priority for making short-form video content, said Kolin Kleveno, SVP of addressable media for Tinuiti.
REUTERS/Dado RuvicSEOUL, Oct 21 (Reuters) - South Korea's parliament saw heated debate on Friday over proposed legislation to make global content providers such as Netflix (NFLX.O) and Alphabet's (GOOGL.O) Google pay South Korean network fees. Others disagreed, saying imposing fees on the big tech companies could mean they could raise their own fees and undermine South Korean content creators. Liz Chung, a director at Netflix's South Korean unit, said her company was looking for ways to handle surging traffic. YouTube has 41.8 million active South Korean users, out of a population of 51.6 million. South Korean network provider SK Broadband has gone to court in the hope of making Big Tech pay fees.
YouTube's new ad revenue-sharing program for Shorts creators is its latest effort to rival TikTok. Ad buyers say Shorts' rev-share program is bad news for TikTok, and worse news for Meta's Reels. But TikTok is still their priority for making short-form video content, said Kolin Kleveno, SVP of addressable media for Tinuiti. And advertisers predicted that even more creators will jump ship to YouTube Shorts thanks to its revenue-sharing program. Tinuiti's Kleveno said YouTube Shorts' revenue-sharing plan will put a ding in Reels' efforts to attract creators.

"It is our belief that all Americans should have access to Truth Social no matter what devices they use. We look forward to Google approving Truth Social at their earliest convenience."
