\u201cOur partners at fuboTV are building a unique programming service, and we are pleased to bring more of our portfolio of real-life passion brands and programs to their subscribers,\u201d said Eric Phillips, president of affiliate distribution at Discovery. \u201cThis agreement further exemplifies the viewer affinity for our beloved brands and talent, and fuboTV\u2019s commitment to offering high-quality, world-class content to customers.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cToday’s content agreement broadens the strategic relationship between Discovery and fuboTV that began almost two years ago with the former Scripps Networks,” said Joel Armijo, CFO of fuboTV. \u201cWe are excited to be adding more Discovery brands alongside their lifestyle networks, which we already carry. These brands, including HGTV and Food Network, are among our top performing entertainment networks, and this agreement allows us to extend our partnership for years to come. We expect to be similarly successful with our new Discovery networks.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
