The Fox News channel is being pulled from the U.K. after failing to find footing with local audiences, CNN reports. "Fox News is focused on the U.S. market and designed for a U.S. audience and, accordingly, it averages only a few thousand viewers across the day in the U.K.," said Fox News' parent company, 21st Century Fox, in a statement.

Fox News' last broadcast in the U.K. was at 4 p.m. local time Tuesday.
