A software project which has been forced to cease operations due to legal action.
The very first Foxed project was "Aliens Quake". 20th Century Fox forced users to stop distributing the software on the grounds that it infringed on their IP. Since the introduction of the DMCA many other proejcts have beeen Foxed including the DeCSS DVD cracking software.

A television network possessing simultaneously the foresight to let The Simpsons run past its first season; the idiocy to underpromote and then cancel Futurama; the cruelty to abuse and then kill a decent show like Firefly before its first season was over; the perversity to air crap like Who Wants To Marry a Millionaire, Joe Millionaire, et al.; and the cluelessness to wonder why it's a one-hit, third-rate network.

To kill a good TV-series. To cancel a TV-series. FOX usually do this to good shows. But sometimes some shows deserve to be foxed.
FOX foxed Firefly, Dollhouse and Terminator.
I hope they fox American Idol in the future.
Have you heard? NBC foxed Southland.

The name of someone with a lot of ambition, and dreams. They will stop at no ends to achieve these goals, so they can come off as a bit of a narcissist, or as a bit rude. Fox is a caring person, who can be seen as a pushover sometimes. He can be quite clumsy. He sometimes dosent think before he speaks.
Fox is a tryhard

William "The Fox" Foster
Biography:
The story of "The Fox" actually began on the Westwood campus of UCLA, where Foster was a border at a fraternity house. He got his first job performing at The Nickelodeon, a small pub at the corner of McClellan and Wilshire Blvd., and was later hired to work at the Mammoth Mountain Inn. He quickly tired of working for others, however, and decided to strike out on his own.
For more than four decades, Foster was somewhat of a local legend in barrooms across Los Angeles (at least to the crowd that first learned He was the self-proclaimed "World's Fastest Beer Drinker" -- able to guzzle a pint of brew quicker than most of us could spill it on the floor -- and a master performer of what he called "songs your mother wouldn't sing."
Foster was best known as proprietor of the Fox Inn, a popular west side tavern, from 1961 to 1989. He performed there nightly, leading his patrons in song and often challenging unsuspecting beer drinkers to chugging races. But the highlight of each night was to see Foster chug a pint of beer while standing on his head.
It wasn't long before Foster's combination of naughty lymrics and stupid human tricks began turning heads in Hollywood. Although his act was sometimes considered too outrageous for primetime, he became a frequent guest star on local and national television programs, including The Jeffersons, Taxi, The Mike Douglas Show and Thicke of The Night.
Foster briefly faded from the public eye in the late '90s, but discovered a whole new audience on cable television. In the summer of 1999, he combined the duties of emcee, house band and sidekick to stars Adam Carolla and Jimmy Kimmel on Comedy Central's top-rated hit, The Man Show, Where He is Credited as the Creator of The Man Show Toast, also known as Ziggy Zahgee.
He Sadly Passed Away on May 10th 2000, of Prostrate Cancer. He will Be Very Sadly missed.
And Fox? Wherever you are, We are still hoisting a Beer and Giving a cheer for you every time. We miss you, buddy.
In honor of the Fox, One more time now.

A TV network stupid enough to cancel Family Guy and so hardened on trying to ruin American culture that it turned the MLB All-Star game into a reality TV show by making it count for something. The only thing that keeps FOX alive is "The Simpsons", which constantly makes fun of its own network. FOX is almost a symbol for all that is evil in America.
FOX News is about the crappiest news ever. About 1/4 of it is actually news and the other crap is "are online flower orders making you wilt?"
