How Roku Will Supercharge Fox’s Streaming and Advertising Businesses

Fox Corp. is acquiring streaming platform Roku in a cash-and-stock deal valued at approximately $22 billion. This strategic move grants Fox access to the Roku Channel, first-party data, and over 100 million global streaming households to boost its advertising and streaming businesses. Despite the potential growth, the transaction could face scrutiny from regulators and content partners concerning Roku's neutrality and the combined entity's FAST services, impacting how the media giant manages its digital ecosystem.
