Hey @scotty05_

Thanks for posting here in the Community!

For more information about that channel's features and functionality, you'll want to contact Fox News' customer support team to inquire further. Many channels on Roku are developed and maintained by the channel provider themselves.

We appreciate your understanding.


All the best,
Kariza

Many channels require a subscription to view live TV or full episodes. Your subscription through Dish should be sufficient to access the full content. I don't subscribe to any TV service, so I can't say how you log into the channel. As @RokuKariza-D mentioned, each channel is provided by their own developer, and each will have different methods of authenticating to their service. Fox will be the best source of information on how to do that.

I want to be able to watch Fox News as well. As of now the only cable I have is uVerse Basic, local channels only. I have not been able to get through to Fox News. They advertise all the ways to watch but not able to get info from them

If you don't subscribe to Fox News through a TV provider, there's no way to watch it online, period. Their channel on Roku devices specifically states it's for US users only, and a TV provider is required. If you only get local channels, your TV provider credentials will not provide you access to Fox News on a Roku. Based on what their web page shows, you need TV Provider credentials for any method of online access, including using a web browser. I went to their online streaming page, and it asked me to select my TV Provider. uVerse wasn't even listed, so my guess is Fox News isn't even available on your system.

This is right at the top of their streaming info page (emphasis mine):

Watch FOX News Channel and FOX Business Network 24/7 live from your desktop, tablet and smart phone. Enjoy whenever and wherever you go, and it’s all included in your TV subscription.
