In May 2004, Fox Sports entered into an agreement with
Microsoft for FoxSports.com to become the official sports portal of
MSN.com, replacing
ESPN.com; the deal included joint advertising sales and revenue sharing, and integration of FoxSports.com into MSN.com and its associated services. The partnership was dissolved in 2014. On June 26, 2017, Fox Sports redesigned its website to focus primarily on streaming video content, laying off 20 writers so these positions could be filled by video-focused roles. The video content draws largely from FS1 studio programs. In 2019,
TV Everywhere streaming of Fox Sports national telecasts and channels was moved to FoxSports.com and the Fox Sports app, as the existing
Fox Sports Go platform was bundled with
Fox Sports Networks as part of the
acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney, and divested to
Sinclair Broadcast Group. By 2020, Fox Sports had begun to backpedal on its video-only strategy, with columnists such as
The Big Lead co-founder Jason McIntyre (who was laid off after the site's sale to Minute Media, and subsequently joined Fox Sports), as well as NASCAR writer
Bob Pockrass beginning to publish articles on the site. On July 20, 2020, the Fox Sports website and app received a major redesign, officially placing a re-emphasis on written articles alongside multimedia content tied to Fox Sports television networks, as well as
sports betting content. On February 6, 2026, Fox Sports released an ranking of all 20 teams in the
2026 World Baseball Classic, which sparked controversy in
Taiwan after
Chinese Taipei was placed at 17th place despite the article stating that Chinese Taipei won gold at the
2024 Premier12 tournament. ==See also==
