Asks for signup and holds…
not real fox news site.
The fact that fox news tracks back to this makes me feel better.
The register is on upper right or left.
https://secure.foxnews.com/register.html
I questioned it when the registration hung three times, no matter with firefox or internet explorer..and many of the links were broken..
Thanks.. I feel better now..

ya this is so i prefer you not to log in it otherwise it may get you into big virus problem
Foxnews.com is owned and operated by Fox News.
Go to fox news and click on ‘Politics’. This is the url it gives:
I can’t see anything about sign ups, but maybe it depends how many times you visit
Looks pretty genuine… I didn’t get asked for a sign-up either.
Try going on the main FoxNews.com website and click on the Politics link, the same URL appears as you have quoted in your question (check the address and you’ll see what I mean)
Don’t forget that as the presidential elections progress, a lot of folk will have a lot to say, so hits to sites like Fox will be above average, this may explain why your registration hung…
I think it is legit.
it goes back to fox news.
Scary these days.
Not sure I would give REAL contact info out. I signed up as Jane Doe and am getting plenty of mail ha ha ha.
