Perceived bias and questionable journalism quality, with some users calling content unreliable or biased (e.g., “fake news”).

Recent reviews

Very obvious screw up when you open the app you’re more concerned with turning on notifications instead of people trying to read the app. What a screw up. Time to delete move onto another news app

Why is this app available in the iOS App Store for my phone but not in the iOS TV App Store? All the other local Fox news stations have streaming apps on AppleTV, Roku, Fire and more. Please add this to the streaming apps too. I wanna watch live using my tv not my phone.
