Disney is sunsetting Hulu next year and everything will come though Disney+

https://cordcuttersnews.com/hulu-to-shut-down-in-the-u-s-and-combine-with-disney/

 

For anyone with the Hulu Live service, has that been integrated into Disney+ yet?  It looks like all Hulu and even ESPN+ content has been available through Disney+ as well so it shouldn't be a surprise to most users.

looks like FOX rolled all their cable nets retrans fees and called it FOXOne. Great for those into sports I guess but my Disney+ and Hulu no ads subscription is $20/month. 

 

 

lack of money as we saw recently. Definitely no cash to start clean from zero with investors who can stomach losing money for 5 years hoping it sticks. Add Byron Allen as the CEO and you have a death timer 

 

Spanish TV also isn't raking the big bucks either. Univision was sold in 2020, after 14 years of no losses, for the $10B debt it had, plus $800 mil in cash for 64% equity, valuing it at $1.2B - 91% loss of value. It sold in 2006 to big private equity for $13.5 billion, the future of Spanish TV. AmericaTeVe - imploded after their sugar daddy bailed on them and took what he paid for with him. SBS - sold MegaTV three years ago for $64 million but the buyer reneged unable to scrounge up the cash. Telemundo has NBCUniversal to prop them up but even WSCV can barley make more than WSFL-TV after 20 years, and being #1 in Miami.

 

Jorge Ramos is only who he is because the network invested in him over time. Another one of those things that are not coming back, especially if more talent is doing well for themselves just sitting on their kitchen table talking at a camera. Judge Brown is enjoying the podcast circuit, though he probably had potential to be one of the star talking heads in his younger years but instead chose 2-3 months of a work a year for the same paycheck. Candace is doing 1 mil views on a bad day and $$$$$. Shannon Sharpe got his 2 million subs on YT too. Stephen A Smith also doesn't need an employer though he's on SiriusXM. 

 

I guess your right Univision just got lucky, and quiet honestly Telemundo was bought by NBC when I was born before that it was in the dumps and was on life support your are right. But still there a very popular networks. Jorge Ramos was created by  you’re they invested in him he was propped up by them so was his long time co anchor who shall remain unnamed  they both essentially went up the ladder. Don’t get me started on the failed MundoFox, Mundo Max disaster.
