NEW YORK, Jan 7 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Boss Bob Iger is injecting Hulu’s struggling live-TV bundle into the $2 bln owner of streaming service Fubo and taking a 70% stake. The transaction helps clear the way for a separate sports-package JV, but does little to solve the real problem: fast-fading broadcast television.

CONTEXT NEWS

Walt Disney said on Jan. 6 it would merge its Hulu + Live TV with FuboTV, a rival streaming service and own 70% of the enlarged company, which will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange.

As part of the transaction, Disney has committed a $145 million loan to FuboTV. Also, in conjunction with the agreement, Fubo settled litigation related to Venu Sports, a joint venture formed by Disney, Fox and Warner Bros Discovery. The owners of Venu will pay Fubo $220 million in cash.

Centerview Partners advised Disney on the deal, while Wells Fargo and Evercore served as financial advisors to Fubo.
