Hi There @wcmaness

Thank you very much for posting with the DIRECTV Community and Forums Team. We understand that you are able to watch the Fox news live. We can try to to help with that. 

 

What needs to happen is that you need to refresh your equipment.  Here is a great self-help article that will help you do just that DIRECTV Refresh Equipment Here

 

What refreshing the receiver will do, is resend the channel authorizations.

 

Let us know how it goes and if you need any more help we'll be happy to help.
