Can't connect to fox news

When I try to watch fox news it say it is unable to connect. I have never had issues like this before. I live in Spokane WA. 

Unable to connect for days. All other channels work fine.

Hi, @user_0bh8wf! Thanks for taking the time out of your day to contact XFINITY over our forums page for help with connecting to Fox News. Fox news is one of my favorite places to go to watch the news so I understand the inconvenience that this can cause. I am sorry to learn about this experience. How are you attempting to connect to Fox News? Are you using a mobile device, a computer, or a set-top box?

Cable box.  All other channels are fine. If I speak into remote, type in channel number or click on Fox news in Guide all same result. "unable to connect to Fox news channel"

Been like this for a week.  I double checked to make sure wasn't accidentally blocked with parental control.  I live in Spokane WA.

Thank you

Having exact same issue in Howard County, Maryland on set top box. Has been occurring off and on for months now. Never happens on ANY OTHER CHANNEL, only FNC. Hmmm...
