the claim

The company Ticketmaster owns the resale site StubHub.

the verdict
REFUTED
the evidence says no
Recorded sources
0 sources for · 7 against

Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the company Ticketmaster owns the resale site StubHub?

No. A reference source states StubHub was sold to eBay in 2007 and later repurchased by Viagogo, forming StubHub Holdings, so it is not owned by Ticketmaster. Other sources consistently treat Ticketmaster and StubHub as separate, competing platforms.
