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.
