Fox Weather
U.S. right (parent brand); weather content itself largely apolitical
Background
Fox Weather launched on October 25, 2021, as Fox Corporation's entry into a weather-focused streaming market previously dominated by The Weather Channel and AccuWeather. It operates under Fox News Media, alongside Fox News Channel and Fox Business, and is ultimately owned by Fox Corporation, in which the Murdoch family holds controlling voting stock. Unlike Fox News, Fox Weather markets itself explicitly as a non-political, service-oriented outlet focused on forecasts, hurricane and severe-storm coverage, and meteorology explainers, staffed by a mix of degreed meteorologists and Fox on-air personalities. It expanded distribution in 2022 by adding digital subchannels on Fox-owned local TV stations. Because its core product is forecasting rather than news analysis or opinion programming, it has drawn far less controversy over political bias than its sibling networks, though media watchdogs have noted that, as part of the Fox News Media umbrella, its climate-change coverage sometimes downplays human-caused warming relative to competitors like The Weather Channel. It remains free to stream via apps and connected-TV platforms, monetized primarily through advertising rather than subscriptions.
