Fox closes $22B acquisition of Roku, creating third-largest U.S. TV business by viewership
Fox has completed its $22 billion acquisition of Roku, formally bringing the streaming platform founded in 2002 under Fox ownership. Fox states the combined company now ranks as the third-largest television business in the U.S. by viewership, with direct access to Roku's reach of more than 100 million households. The stated rationale is improved advertising targeting, a stronger position in the connected TV market and reduced reliance on traditional TV distribution. The closing follows a Justice Department second request for information issued two months earlier as part of an antitrust review, and completes far ahead of the first-half-2027 timeline projected when the deal was announced in June. The article reports no security incident, vulnerability, data exposure or threat activity; it is corporate and media-industry news with no direct defensive implication.
