Washington, D.C. (April 7, 2008) -- Time Warner last week released a list of High-Definition channels that it will add in some New York communities by April 30.

The list included many familiar names such as The Weather Channel HD and ESPNews HD. However, also on the list was one channel that has yet to launch:

Fox News HD.


Fox's Megyn Kelly is ready for high-def.

The top-rated cable news network has been working on a high-def simulcast for months, according to industry sources. But it has surprisingly failed to launch, although main rival CNN has been in high-def now for more than six months.

Sources told TVPredictions.com last fall that DIRECTV would carry Fox News HD when it launched -- and Time Warner is now saying it will offer the channel by month's end.

So, did Time Warner let the cat out of the bag by saying Fox News HD will be added this month?

There's been no official confirmation from Fox so stay tuned.
