RadioShack appears to have a sponsorship deal going with Fox News to offer a free one-month trial of the channels #FOXN service, which normally goes for $2.99 a month on AT&T Wireless. The #FOXN service uses technology from Single Touch Interactive and offers a live audio feed of the news channel, on-demand news, business and weather headlines, ringtones and a call-back service for the users’ favorite program. The main reason behind this could be anything, but Fox will also likely be checking to see whether an ad-supported service will do better than a subscription service.
