  • Fubo CEO, David Gandler, is unhappy about Comcast's decision to exclusively stream an NFL Wild Card game on Peacock.
  • Fubo pays to air NBC, so the decision by Comcast creates competition between the two streaming platforms.
  • Peacock's exclusive stream of the game reached 23 million viewers, making it the most-streamed event ever for the service.

Seeing as most sports team stadiums are publicly funded, maybe we should broadcast the games on public access.
