Fubo said it met via video conference last week with members of the policy division for the Federal Communications Commission’s Media Bureau, asking them to not to consider bundlers of streamed live channels (aka “virtual MVPDs”) as full-fledged traditional multichannel video programming distributors (MVPDs).
Around 97% of local stations in the U.S. are on Fubo, the company explained to the agency, according to an ex parte letter sent from Steven J. Brody assistant general counsel, regulatory and government affairs for Fubo, to FCC secretary Marlene Dortch.
