TL;DR Summary

Fubo has filed an antitrust lawsuit against Disney, Fox, and Warner Bros. Discovery over their partnership to create a sports streaming platform, alleging that the companies have blocked its innovative sports-first streaming business and are now effectively stealing its playbook. Fubo argues that restrictive licensing terms and unfair bundling have forced it to pay for and distribute expensive non-sports channels that its customers do not want. The company is seeking to block or limit the venture and is also asking for economic parity of licensing terms and damages. The US government is reportedly reviewing the companies' plan to determine its potential impact on consumers.
