      Nope. CNN is owned by Warner Bros. Discovery, and was founded by Ted Turner. Fox News is owned by Fox Corporation, and was founded by Rupert Murdock.

      Understandable mistake. It’s easy to forget those people aren’t the same guy.

      Ummm, no…

      Warner Bros Discovery owns CNN, Rupert Murdoch owns Fox (and does not own Warner Bros Discovery).
