Hi @Cwwr,

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

We understand that you're having issues streaming Fox News. Could you tell us what error message are you seeing? When did the issue start, and what steps have you taken so far?

We would recommend the basic troubleshooting sequence below:
  1. Remove the channel: navigate to your Home screen, move to the right, highlight the app, press Star*, then select Remove channel
  2. Perform a system reboot: navigate to your Home, select Settings > System > Power (skip if unavailable) > System restart
  3. Re-install the channel: navigate to your Home, scroll and select Store, look for the app, then press Add channel

Kindly keep us posted.

All the best,
Janadee

Following these steps I was able to get Fox News playing on my HiSense Roku TV

1) Turn Off, then Unplug TV from wall outlet and wait over a minute, 70 seconds

2) Remove Fox News Channel App via the Remote

3) Log-In online to Roku Account and Add Channel, Validate from E-Mail Roku Sends

4) Navigate to the Fox News App via the Remote, check for any updates then accept the T's&C's and watch

These steps worked where previously loading was stuck at 13% and would not load.  Hope this helps.
