=== Background ===
'''Visuals:''' In a black background, with a reflective floor, we see "{{color|gold|'''FOX'''}}" in {{color|gold}}, with the "<b>O</b>" being represented via negative space. The camera pans through the logo and the station's channel number at the center rotates in, complete with its callsign and city of license below.
The '''Fox Broadcasting Company''' was created on October 9, 1986 by the News Corporation, with its name taken from the namesake [[20th Century Studios|Twentieth Century '''Fox''']] film and television studio that they also owned at that time. The network held its "grand opening" on April 5, 1987 with the introduction of primetime programming and for over 31 years, it has turned from a small fledging network into the fourth major television network on US broadcast television. After a big ownership change in 2013 with the creation of 21st Century Fox, the network would receive another major ownership change three years later, when The Walt Disney Company announced that it would acquire most of 21CF's assets including their entertainment assets (such as the Fox studio), pay-TV networks, the Star India network group, their stakes in [[Hulu]], National Geographic Partners & Endemol Shine Group (later spun-off to Banijay) and its regional sports networks (which were later spun-off to the Diamond Sports Group and renamed in order for the merger to get DOJ approval). Due to Disney's ownership of [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC]], which meant that ownership of two major networks (ABC and Fox) is considered illegal by FCC regulations as well as their ownership of ESPN, the Fox network, as well as certain assets such as the Fox Sports channels, their news channels among other assets would be spun-off into a separate company using the Fox name. The entity, titled Fox Corporation began trading on March 19, 2019 and has owned the network and the rights to the Fox brand since then.

'''Visuals:''' On a black background, there is a faint dark blue Fox logo. Several golden yellow sparks draw out the outline of the logo as two golden searchlights cross. The camera slowly pans up so that the Fox logo is facing forward, as another set of searchlights cross. The former two searchlights move upwards. Both sets of searchlights collide, causing a flash that turns the Fox logo gold. The searchlights appear behind the logo as the camera zooms out to reveal the rest of the logo, until it is at a slightly curved angle. Several white stars move toward the Fox logo in the background (likely resembling space) as the searchlights continue to move.

Background

The Fox Broadcasting Company was created on October 9, 1986 by the News Corporation, with its name taken from the namesake Twentieth Century Fox film and television studio that they also owned at that time. The network held its "grand opening" on April 5, 1987 with the introduction of primetime programming and for over 31 years, it has turned from a small fledging network into the fourth major television network on US broadcast television. After a big ownership change in 2013 with the creation of 21st Century Fox, the network would receive another major ownership change three years later, when The Walt Disney Company announced that it would acquire most of 21CF's assets including their entertainment assets (such as the Fox studio), pay-TV networks, the Star India network group, their stakes in Hulu, National Geographic Partners & Endemol Shine Group (later spun-off to Banijay) and its regional sports networks (which were later spun-off to the Diamond Sports Group and renamed in order for the merger to get DOJ approval). Due to Disney's ownership of ABC, which meant that ownership of two major networks (ABC and Fox) is considered illegal by FCC regulations as well as their ownership of ESPN, the Fox network, as well as certain assets such as the Fox Sports channels, their news channels among other assets would be spun-off into a separate company using the Fox name.
