    Hello, we are so sorry to learn about the issues you're having with Fox News. Are you having difficulties watching Fox News using our cable equipment or are you trying to access content through the website, using your smart TV? -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator

        Are you subscribed to Cable TV service through Cox Communications? If you are, you can use your Cox Username and Password to log onto the Fox News app, If you're having issues with watching content. If you're having issues getting locked out of the Amazon Fire itself, we would recommend contacting Amazon directly.

    I have cox as my home subscription. The fox news app on TV with fire TV has a lock. I go through the process of application code but it comes up "code does not match". It does match and I've tried it 100 times. Never have I had a problem over 2 years.

      Roku stated in their Forums that they reached out to Fox News regarding these issues. It should be resolved soon! -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator
