It looks like Hulu Live TV and YouTube TV subscribers may lose access to the Monumental Sports Network. Confirmation of the dispute comes directly from Monumental Sports who says they’ve been unable to agree a new deal with either live TV service.
Key Takeaways
- Monumental Sports Network may be dropped by Hulu Live TV and YouTube TV, despite the network saying it offered financial concessions to stay on both platforms.
- Previously dropped by Fubo, Monumental Sports Network is urging viewers to stay informed via KeepMonumentalSports.com.
- Monumental Sports Network offers its own Monumental+ streaming service, with a subscription priced at $19.99/mo.
According to Monumental Sports Network, the network has made multiple attempts and “significant economic concessions” in a bid to ensure the channel remains available to subscribers.
In spite of this, Monumental Sports Network says both Hulu Live TV and YouTube TV “have refused to reach fair agreements” with the network.
Monumental Sports Network has launched KeepMonumentalSports.com for those interested in keeping up to date on the dispute.
While Monumental Sports Network has publicly confirmed the carriage disputes with both live TV services, the deadline for a new deal currently remains unclear.
For any Hulu Live TV or YouTube TV customers concerned they may lose access to the channel, Monumental Sports Network launched its own Monumental+ streaming service in October of 2023, with a subscription costing $19.99 a month.
Monumental Sports Network was previously removed from the Fubo channel lineup in June 2024, after the two sides also failed to agree a new deal.
In the case of YouTube TV, the emergence of this dispute comes at a time when YouTube TV is already locked in a separate dispute with TelevisaUnivision over Univision, as well as another reported dispute with NBCUniversal over the company’s suite of NBC cable channels.
