YouTube has become the largest television distributor in the United States by watch time, a position partly attributed to strategic moves including its July 2026 partnership with Peacock/NBCUniversal, as detailed in an August 6, 2026, Looper Insights report. Previously, on August 5, the LiUNA Local 724 union, representing production assistants on NBC's *Chicago Med* and *Chicago Fire*, protested alleged cuts to guaranteed work hours for its members, erecting banners and a "Scabby the Rat" inflatable at two production locations. Also on August 5, NBC Sports and the Maryland Jockey Club announced a multi-year extension of their partnership, ensuring the Preakness Stakes will continue to be presented on NBC and Peacock through 2032. This follows the August 3 departure of Joanne Liddell, NBC Universal's commercial and marketing director for the Asia-Pacific region, after just over a year in the role due to an "organizational restructure."
