The Fox News Channel (FNC), also known as Fox News, is a New York-based American multinational conservative news and political commentary television channel and website. Fox News Media, which is owned by the Fox Corporation, owns it. It is the most-watched cable network in the United States and generates approximately 70% of its parent company's pre-tax profit as of 2023. The channel primarily broadcasts from 1211 Avenue of the Americas in Midtown Manhattan.

Rupert Murdoch founded the channel in 1996 to appeal to a conservative audience, hiring former Republican media consultant and CNBC executive Roger Ailes as its founding CEO. On October 7, 1996, it debuted for 17 million cable subscribers. Fox News grew to become the dominant cable news subscription network in the United States during the late 1990s and early 2000s. Fox News could be available in 87 million U.S. households (91 percent of television subscribers) by September 2018. It was the highest-rated cable network in 2019, with 2.5 million viewers in prime time. Murdoch has been the executive chairman since 2016, as of April 2022, with Suzanne Scott as CEO since 2018.

Fox News scandals have included biased reporting in favor of the Republican Party, its politicians, and conservative causes while portraying the Democratic Party negatively. Critics claim that the channel undermines the credibility of news in general. Fox News has denied that its reporting is biased. The channel's official stance is that its reporting is separate from its opinion journalism.
