Fubo TV signed a new deal with Scripps broadcasting that will bring a bevy of the company’s popular broadcast networks to the streamer.
FuboTV subscribers can enjoy the popular Scripps networks ION, ION Mystery, ION Plus, Bounce, Grit, Newsy (becomes Scripps News on January 1) and Court TV. The launch of these Scripps networks further expands FuboTV’s entertainment and news offerings, which, alongside its leading sports offering, makes Fubo a top streaming TV option for families.
The announcement did not include information as to which tiers the new channels will be included.
“Today’s launch gives consumers a new streaming option to watch these top Scripps channels and further diversifies FuboTV’s growing programming line-up,” said Marisa Elizondo, vice president, content strategy and distribution, FuboTV. “Fubo’s mission is to aggregate and distribute a leading sports package, balanced with news and entertainment content, that appeals to every member of the household, all at an affordable price.”
“We believe that our diversified portfolio of popular news and entertainment networks will help strengthen FuboTV as an alternative pay tv option for consumers,” said Jeffrey Wolf, chief distribution officer, Scripps Networks.
