Like the topic says, I’m curious as to what record labels Fox owns… I wonder how far reaching their grasp is on entertainment. ---

They own Festival Mushroom records (they merged the former Festival Records with Mushroom Records after acquiring both.) I think they may have some minority stakes in other record labels as well. ---

Fox is just a subsidiary of News Corp. The News Corp. annual report for 2001 (the latest I could find online) makes no mention of owning any record companies. ---
