The title is misleading. Fox will keep Fox, Fox Sports, Fox News and Fox Financial. Basically ABC will only buy minor properties of Fox, specifically movies and minor cable channels. Also Fox and ABC has no longer talk on the issue. CNBC is just stirring the pot on yesterday's news.

The most misleading part when CNBC reported this yesterday is to question Hulu's ownership. Right now NBC, ABC and Fox each own 30% of Hulu. (CBS has its own streaming service.) CNBC speculated that ABC ownership would go up from 30% to 60% if ABC acquired part of Fox. They treated viewers like idiots. If Fox keeps Fox broadcasting network, they still own 30% of Hulu.
