In a partnership with Allen Media Group, Google’s YouTube TV streaming service is adding The Weather Channel later this year.
As reported by Deadline, a new deal between Google and Allen Media Group will see Google Cloud provide infrastructure to AMG apps and services.
In turn, AMG will expand its YouTube TV offering to include The Weather Channel, which will arrive this year on the live TV streaming service with other channels after. AMG will also be bringing more dedicated streaming apps to Google’s platforms, including Google TV/Android TV, and Android apps through Google Play.
AMG will also expand its YouTube TV carriage in 2022, initially with The Weather Channel and select Allen Media Group Networks, with additional nets launching later.
Additionally, Allen Media Digital and Google will continue to work together to bring AMG’s streaming offerings to more consumers on the devices of their choice via Google Play to Android phones and tablets, as well as Google TV and other Android TV OS devices.
