TL;DR
- YouTube TV viewers are taking issue with insufficient labeling for some sporting events.
- Individual matches are not always identified as men’s or women’s.
- College sports seem particularly impacted, and it’s not even always clear what sport is being played.
It’s a lazy Sunday afternoon. You’re browsing YouTube TV for something to watch. You spot the name of a cop show that sounds interesting, tap your remote and — what’s this? The detectives are women, not men? How could YouTube TV be this deceptive?
For as absurd as that complaint sounds, a very similar situation has been playing out among YouTube TV sports fans, where viewers accuse the service of not adequately labeling which gender of athletes are competing.
