Fox Corporation finalizes $22 billion acquisition of Roku

Fox Corporation has officially acquired Roku for $22 billion, finalizing the deal just five months after its announcement. The acquisition, which received clearance from the Trump Justice Department, integrates Roku's extensive reach of over 100 million households into Fox's digital media portfolio. Anthony Wood, Roku's founder, will join Fox's board and co-lead a new division overseeing Roku and other digital brands, though the long-term implications for Roku users and content promotion remain uncertain.
