Fox News app freezes after each commercial

This issue is definitely a Roku issue. I uploaded the app on my optimum fiber optic tv and it works great. When I watch Fox News on both Roku devices they both freeze after each commercial. I restarted each Roku device. I deleted the Fox News app and reinstalled it on both Roku devices, cleared the cache on both devices. Nothing works. The issue is ROKU! Fix it!

Re: Fox News app freezes after each commercial

Please see other threads. This is an acknowledged bug in the Fox News app. Fox is responsible for maintaining the app, not Roku.
