I doubt anyone knows. Certainly not anyone who posts in these forums. I would say we are less likely to get it than the Sky HD channels and nobody knows if or when we will get those either. The thing is, unlike the HD channels only a tiny minority are bothered about getting Fox news (IMHO).

Honestly, why would you want Fox News? George Bush and Nick Griffin might be avid watchers but it's only purpose is for the comedy value.

You are either trolling, have no idea what Fox is, or are not the sort of person anyone here would want to associate with.

Fox News is a hateful, offensive, ultra right wing, homophobic, pro-religion, pro-war, neo con propaganda channel which will offend anyone with a functioning brain. Nothing it says can ever be considered rational, truthful, or indeed fair and balanced.

I hope Virgin are never stupid enough to carry it.

I'd just like to say thanks to MB for letting us know that there is more in the pipeline even if you can't tell us what it is. Your hard work and dedication, I am sure, is appreciated by most.

Don't beat about the bush. Do you like the channel or not?

Joking aside I totally agree with you.

The current asian pack on vm is value for money its a shame they won't be getting any more channels they could do with at least adding the missing channels from Star and View Asia pack.

Maybe Virgin might not have an new announcement tomorrow as I have been told that we might get an new Channel announcement either once a week or every other week.

I think any announcements this week will be saved until the 4th results.
