FuboTV is set to merge with Disney’s Hulu+ Live TV, boosting subscribers to 6.2 million in North America. The merger eliminates antitrust lawsuits with Venu, a potential competitor backed by Disney, Fox, and Warner Bros Discovery. FuboTV also receives a $220 million payment and a $145 million term loan from Disney.
