YouTube suspends Murdoch-backed radio station in UK
Alphabet Inc.’s YouTube suspended the channel of a News Corp.-owned radio station in the U.K., saying it breached the platform’s content standards.
Links that previously led to TalkRadio’s YouTube page on Tuesday contained a message that the account had been “terminated for violating YouTube’s Community Guidelines.”
“We urgently await a detailed response from Google/YouTube about the nature of the breach,” TalkRadio said in a statement, adding that its content is regulated by U.K. media watchdog Ofcom. Representatives for YouTube didn’t respond to requests for comment, and it’s not yet clear what triggered the suspension.
