An anonymous reader shares a report: Without giving users a justification, Roku just announced via mass email that after January 31, 2020, all Fox “standalone” channels with no longer be available on the service’s streaming boxes or TVs equipped with its software. The email states that “You can still watch FOX channels through these services: FuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, SlingTV, YouTube TV and other live TV services,” and goes on to add that “If you have a Roku TV, you may be able to receive FOX over the air with an antenna.” The company hasn’t issued an official public statement on the change, but according to its support account on Twitter and a statement from a company spokesperson, the move is triggered by the end of its distribution contract with Fox. It appears Roku and Fox are handling their contract negotiations in public view, with users’ experience hanging in the balance. It’s always possible Fox and Roku could come to an 11th hour agreement.<\/p>\n
