{{Anchor|Fox in Canada}}
Fox and its affiliated companies operate many entertainment channels in international markets, but these do not necessarily air the same programming as the U.S. network. Most viewers in Canada have access to at least one U.S.-based Fox affiliate, either over the air or through a pay television provider, although Fox's [[NFL on Fox|National Football League broadcasts]] and most of its prime time programming are subject to [[simultaneous substitution]] regulations for [[pay television]] providers imposed by the [[Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission]] (CRTC) to protect rights held by domestically based networks. Like Canada, Fox programming is available in Mexico through free-to-air affiliates in markets located within proximity to the Mexico–United States border whose signals are readily receivable over-the-air in border areas of northern Mexico. In Central America, the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean, many subscription providers carry either select U.S.-based Fox-affiliated stations or the the main network feed from Fox O&Os [[WNYW]] in [[New York City]] or [[WSVN]] in [[Miami]]. In addition, the network's programming has been available in the [[U.S. Virgin Islands]] since 2011 on [[WVXF]] in [[Charlotte Amalie, U.S. Virgin Islands|Charlotte Amalie]] (owned by [[Caribbean Broadcasting Network]], [[Limited liability company|LLC]]). Like Central America, the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean, Fox programming is available in Peru and Colombia in many subscription providers carry either select U.S.-based Fox-affiliated stations or the main network feed from Fox O&Os [[WNYW]] in [[New York City]] or [[WSVN]] in [[Miami]].
 
Fox is named after the film studio that was originally called [[20th Century Studios|20th Century Fox]] (the network's corporate sibling prior to that studio's [[Acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney|acquisition by The Walt Disney Company]]) and after the producer [[William Fox (producer)|William Fox]], who had founded one of the film studio's predecessors, [[Fox Film]], before it was merged with [[20th Century Pictures]] in 1935.
