I have received complaints that Google’s @YouTubeTV is discriminating against faith-based programming.
These concerning allegations come at a time when American public discourse has experienced an unprecedented—and unacceptable—surge in censorship.

Sounds like basically a faith-oriented streaming platform that does discriminate against certain content is marketing themselves by saying that they are better than YouTube TV because YouTube discriminates and using this as a way to say that the government is even "investigating" YouTube's discrimination to prove their point even though they were the ones who triggered the "investigation". Good marketing if you have a niche audience obsessed with discriminating and pretending they're the ones being discriminated against because people don't like their discrimination.
