The Fox News effect or Fox effect is a marketing term that states that the development of the cable news network Fox News Channel has had a major impact on the conduct of both domestic politics in the United States and news coverage by FNC's domestic industry competitors. The term is similar to the CNN effect, coined several years earlier, which suggests that the Cable News Network had a major impact on the conduct of states' foreign policy in the late Cold War period, and that the influence of CNN and its subsequent industry competitors has continued in the post–Cold War era.

Famous quotes containing the words fox and/or effect:
“Where has it all gone? I remember that twenty years ago there were geese and cranes and ducks and grouse here, clouds of them!... And there are far fewer animals. Wolf and fox are rare, brother, not to mention bears or mink. There used even to be moose!”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)
“I guess what I’ve really discovered is the humanizing effect of children in my life—stretching me, humbling me. Maybe my thighs aren’t as thin as they used to be. Maybe my getaways aren’t as glamorous. Still I like the woman that motherhood has helped me to become.”
—Susan Lapinski (20th century)
