There is some programming on Fox Sports 1 that I would want, but the rest of the Fox channels? Cut 'em loose!

I did not include a link to the following, because I was unsure this piece was the news to which you were referring.

"Sky News Australia temporarily suspended from YouTube for allegedly spreading coronavirus misinformation (Monday 2 August 2021, by Rachel Pannett who writes about global news for The Washington Post)."

"SYDNEY — Rupert Murdoch’s Sky News Australia has been banned from posting new videos and live-streaming on YouTube for a week after violating the platform’s policies by sharing clips that allegedly spread misinformation about the coronavirus pandemic."
