A new trademark filing by Fox could reveal the intended name of the service that observers have dubbed ‘Spulu’ for lack of a better name.
So long, Spulu? Media analysts have adopted that moniker — a portmanteau of Sports and Hulu — for the joint venture sports streaming platform being developed by Disney, Fox, and Warner Bros. Discovery, as a way to nod to its three-way ownership structure which is similar to the arrangement used by Hulu when it first launched. This week, Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch revealed to the public that the service does indeed have a name, though he declined to disclose what that name actually will be. But a new report indicates that Fox has filed to trademark the name of its Australian sports streaming services in the United States, which could point to the name for the Jv, or indicate that Fox is planning to bring another sports streaming option to the U.
