Android phone + Chrome for search engine + too many fox news alerts. (Original Post) irisblue Nov 2018 OP
Try Firefox. Also, Firefox Focus is great. Both on the Google store. RKP5637 Nov 2018 #1

Seriously, I have an Android with chrome and I never get fox alerts. Go through your settings, looking for the word “fox” - you’ll find it somewhere, have patience- and delete it.

From inside Chrome:
3-dot menu > Settings > notifications > additional

Delete foxnews.com from the "allowed" list.
