Breaking: Local CBS Affiliates Returning to Fubo Following Carriage Dispute Between Streamer, Network, Board (2024)

At the end of January, a disagreement between Paramount Global’s broadcast network CBS and the station’s Affiliate Board led to the channel being removed from live TV streaming service Fubo. Paramount and Fubo had come to an agreement to extend their carriage agreement, but the Affiliate Board — which is comprised of individual owners and operators of local CBS channels — declined to approve the deal, believing that Paramount was acting in its own interest to the detriment of the station owners.

Though CBS provided access to a national feed for Fubo subscribers, local news and sports coverage was not included. However, three weeks after a report indicated that the Affiliate Board had approved a new deal with the sports-centric streamer, users are beginning to see their local CBS stations appear in their channel guides.

A Fubo spokesperson told The Streamable, “Virtually all CBS local affiliates have returned to Fubo and are now live.”

Fubo

Fubo is a live TV streaming service with about 90 top channels that start at $79.99 per month. This plan includes local channels, 19 of the top 35 cable channels, and regional sports networks (RSNs). In total, you should expect to pay about $94.99 per month, after adding in their RSN Fee. Fubo was previously known as “fuboTV.”

The streaming service does not carry channels from WarnerMedia-owned (CNN, TBS, and TNT), A+E (A&E, History Channel, and Lifetime), and AMC Networks (AMC, BBC America, and WE tv). So, in our experience, if you are looking to watch the NBA, which heavily plays on TBS and TNT, you may want to look at another live TV streaming provider.

But for other sports fans, especially those who want to stream local sports, Fubo is a great option in our opinion. They recently announced adding Bally Sports RSNs to their channel lineup and it is the least expensive option to get RSNs in many markets like Altitude, AT&T Sports, Fox Sports, Marquee, MSG, NBC Sports, and NESN. (Take a look at the full list of Fubo’s sports channels.)

Fubo also includes MLB Network, NBA TV, NFL Network, NFL RedZone , NHL Network, and beIN Sports (which is not available on most services). You can add Fox Soccer Plus as part of the International Sports Plus add-on for $6/month.

You can add the fubo Extra ($8) to add ~36 channels including GSN.
