Verizon Fios is the most recent supplier to drop One American News (OAN) community, a transfer that leaves the right-wing information channel and not using a main service, as reported earlier by The Daily Beast. In a notice on its website, Verizon explains viewers will not have entry to OAN beginning July thirty first.

“Our negotiation with OAN has been a typical, business-as-usual carriage negotiation like those that routinely happen between content distributors and content providers,” Verizon stated in an announcement to The Daily Beast. “These negotiations were focused on economics, as they always are, but OAN failed to agree to fair terms.” Verizon didn’t instantly reply to The Verge’s request for remark.

OAN, which is owned by the California-based Herring Networks, has confronted criticism for allegedly “peddling conspiracy theories and falsehoods.” In 2020, YouTube suspended the community’s channel after it promoted a pretend treatment for COVID-19. OAN additionally turned the topic of a defamation lawsuit filed by the electronic voting system company Dominion over false allegations that its machines interfered with the 2020 US election. Smartmatic, one other voting system firm, ordered OAN and different conservative stations to retract their claims about voter fraud.

Last 12 months, 16 civil rights, human rights, and media justice groups signed a letter urging DirecTV to drop OAN, which it will definitely did. The AT&T spinoff decided not to renew its contract with OAN in January and officially dropped the channel in April. OAN responded by suing DirecTV and AT&T, claiming the businesses “bowed to political pressure,” and will probably trigger the community to close down. Now that each Verizon and DirecTV have dropped OAN, the channel is left and not using a main broadcasting platform within the US — OAN’s now solely accessible to stream on-line or on choose native stations.
