Fox New Live and Amazon Fire TV

[RJPL]

When using Amazon Fire Stick, Fox News Live (both New and Business News) are the only channels which get disconnected every time I turn the TV off.  To see Fox News Live again, I have to log off Fox News Live from the Fire TV stick, and then re login via web at Foxnews.com/activate with new code shown by the Fire Stick

It appears that Comcast is dropping this access (or, censoring) Fox News Live every time it gets an opportunity.  It does not seem to happen with another similar channel like CNBC.

Same issue, cannot watch Fox news live on Amazon Fire although I have the full xfinity package. This is not acceptable. I pay for the service, should be able to watch in my home on whatever device I choose.

I’m having the same problem with Fox News, Food Network, and HGTV. Comcast customer service acts like they’ve never heard of this problem. They reset my account and had me sign in again. Fox News came right up and less than an hour later it stops and I get the error message saying my provider does not allow access to the network. If they would just acknowledge that they know of the problem and that they will work on the issue it would go a long way!

I agree with you what is the deal. When did everything become so political that we can’t even watch the channels we want. Ugh get over yourselves.

 Re:  Fire TV, I was on Fox News Live (as it was being broadcast) but this stopped.  Now I require a code and I must indicate one of the providers listed but there is none for Comcast or Infinity.   How do I get back to keeping FN on my tv without a hastle?

It is irresponsible to take away live broadcast from the public. Shameful to say the least.

The problem appears to be a compatibily issue for the Amazon Fire stick and using the app.

Comcast does not censor any channels.

Having the same exact problem, I had to plug in my fire tv to the wall so it doesn’t turn off in order to fix the problem
