Fight Misinformation On Local News
Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes' 21st Century Fox owns and operates 28 stations in major media markets around the country. These stations might seem independent, but Fox uses them to push misinformation to viewers like you.

By operating local stations, Fox News executives can transmit key right-wing talking points to large numbers of people who don't watch cable news. And with Fox-owned stations now reaching 37% of U.S. television audiences, that's a huge opportunity for the conservative media.
Unfortunately for Murdoch and Ailes, we know their tactics, and we're not going to let them slowly turn their stations into miniature versions of Fox News.

Have a Fox station in your area that isn't on this list? Local news stations fall into two categories: “owned and operated” stations, where content is controlled by a network or larger parent company, and “affiliate” stations that are not owned by a central network. While Fox affiliates can also spread misinformation, we're starting with a focus on stations explicitly controlled by Murdoch and Ailes.
Don't have any stations owned and operated by Fox near you? You can still help by spreading the word:
