Recently added channels over the last month include local Scripps news stations and entertainment channels from Lionsgate, FilmRise and Cinedigm.

Hitting the FAST Channel milestone also comes on the heels of its recently launched and exclusive FIFA World Cup Linear FAST Channel that joins other popular services including Gordon Ramsay, ION, The Masked Singer, VICE, TMZ, Game Show Central, Tubi Originals and more.

With the recently added Scripps channels, news on Tubi now features over 100 local station feeds across nearly 60 designated market areas (DMAs).

Newly added Scripps channels include local stations in Indianapolis, Baltimore, Tulsa, Omaha, Tucson, Fort Myers, Buffalo, and Las Vegas.
