A New York federal court has set an August 7 date for a preliminary injunction hearing tied to Fubo's antitrust lawsuit against Disney, Fox and Warner Bros. Discovery, alleging their sports-streaming joint venture, informally known as “Spulu,” is anticompetitive.
Fubo has called the JV a “sports cartel,” and has loudly complained that the three media companies — in bundling their linear sports channels in a service expected to cost around $50 a month — are deploying bundling schemes they’ve resisted offering their pay TV partners for decades.
