📺 Big news! @BBCNews is now streaming live on YouTube in the UK and U.S. YouTube is the home for high-quality, trusted news: in the first half of 2026 alone, viewers watched over 18 billion hours of news content on the platform. By using @YouTube's live tools, iconic broadcasters like the BBC can build deep, authentic rapport, bringing global communities together to learn, discuss, and follow history as it happens.
Community note
This comes as part of a wider move to expand the license fee charter. An upcoming government white paper will recommend Britons be forced to fund the BBC if they use YouTube, Netflix, Amazon or Disney Plus independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

At last week’s @Google Zeitgeist, @YouTube CEO @nealmohan joined @Oprah to discuss the evolution of storytelling and audience engagement both online and offline. 🧵
I recently sat down with @Oprah at @Google Zeitgeist to talk about storytelling, listening to your audience and the importance of human connection. She shared lessons from decades of conversations with people from every walk of life, including one that has stayed with her: everyone wants to feel seen and heard. That truth shaped our conversation about the responsibility of running @YouTube and what that means to me personally. Ultimately our job is to build the stage where great ideas find their audience and people can connect. Our full conversation is now live: piped.video/watch?v=EHVyk9Zc…

But digital-first creators are too often isolated from having a say in their own future. So we asked them directly. Our new report, “Creative Capital,” takes the thoughts of 20,000 Creators from all 27 EU Member States and distils them into five practical steps to unlock this creative potential.
