0

The “sports first” vMVPD that sees John Janedis serve as its Chief Financial Officer has just reached a new comprehensive multi-year distribution deal with the nation’s No. 1 owner of broadcast television stations.


The agreement between FuboTV Inc. and Nexstar Media Group ensures 37 CW Network affiliates, 25 MyNetworkTV affiliates, 23 ABC affiliates, and four independent television stations will be seen by local viewers that use Fubo.

The agreement also extends Fubo’s carriage of Nexstar’s national cable news network, NewsNation.

Not included are NBC, FOX and CBS stations that may be owned by Nexstar, as vMVPD rights agreements are negotiated by the networks for these channels.

Financial terms were not disclosed.
