Fox Corporation to Meta: A licence under which Fox provides Meta certain multimedia content for use in AI training models, not books or similar content. Disclosed in a magistrate judge's discovery order of 19 October 2026 (Kadrey v. Meta and four related suits, N.D. Cal.), which grants Fox's motion for a protective order so that Fox and Meta need not produce the unredacted agreement or its negotiation documents; the date of the agreement itself is not stated. The order does not say whether this is the same agreement as the Fox News news-and-links deal Meta announced on 5 December 2025 (held as its own record), so the two are not merged.
Fee not disclosed: the order calls the amount paid and the scope of licensed material highly competitively sensitive, and says Fox is actively negotiating other licence agreements
