Chicago Sports Network Expands Access Amid Comcast Standoff
The new regional sports network has partnered with Fubo TV to reach more viewers as negotiations with Comcast remain unresolved.
- Chicago Sports Network (CHSN) has launched as a joint venture by the Bulls, Blackhawks, and White Sox, replacing NBC Sports Chicago.
- CHSN is now available on Fubo TV's Pro plan, offering greater access to Chicago sports fans unable to watch via Comcast.
- The network is accessible through DirecTV, U-Verse, Astound, and several smaller cable providers, but not yet on Comcast.
- CHSN has secured over-the-air broadcast agreements with stations in Chicago, Rockford, South Bend, and Indianapolis.
- CHSN aims to keep its programming accessible without moving to higher-cost tiers, a point of contention in Comcast negotiations.
