YouTube has suspended Sky News Australia, which has 1.85 million subscribers on the video-sharing platform from uploading news and other content for seven days, supposedly for violating the American company’s Covid misinformation policy. Sky News would not be able to upload live streams too.
The Guardian quoted a YouTube spokesperson as claiming that the social media giant had removed “numerous” offending videos uploaded by Sky News Australia but didn’t name which shows or news programs they were from.

Responding to the ban, Sky News Australia, which is run by a subsidiary of Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp, said in a statement that while YouTube had the right to enforce its policies, the media organization “rejects that any host has ever denied the existence of Covid as was implied, and no such videos were ever published or removed.”
