This deal includes Fox Sports, Fox News and Fox Television stations.


Comcast and Fox have decided on terms for a renewal of a distribution agreement. The agreement includes Fox’s cable channels, Fox News, and Fox locals.

The deal will give Comcast streaming rights to Fox properties, along with on-demand and TV Everywhere rights through Xfinity, along with the Fox NOW, Fox Sports, and Fox News apps.

“We are pleased to extend our longstanding and productive partnership with Comcast so that millions of Xfinity customers will continue to enjoy Fox’s leading sports, entertainment and news programming for years to come,” said Michael Biard, president of operations and distribution at Fox.

As I said, Fox owned stations typically don't have digital subchannels. Maybe you can be specific.

Here's what the article says: "The deal includes 28 local Fox stations, Fox News, Fox Business, FS1, FS2, BTN, and Fox Deportes."

Maybe your specific cable company isn't Comcast.
 
CCI and yes Nexstar owns WDAF and no 4.4 TBD or Fox Sports Deportes on CCI in KC area yet same with 4.3 Court TV but already get 38.4 Court TV.
