They’re local news stations that carry the Fox brand and play Fox TV (Sitcoms, dramas, etc) the rest of the time on the channel. They don’t have to show outwardly reactionary opinions of Fox news or show Tucker Carlson, for example.
Tucker Carlson isn’t on Fox News anymore. But yes, local Fox stations do not have to show Fox News programming, but Fox News does offer local stations news packages that are generally opinion-free to use in their programming (I used to shoot and edit news for a local Fox station). They’re also not owned by Fox. The one I worked for was owned by NexStar and the same company also owned the local ABC station. They had the same newscasters and shared the same building, but the ABC station used ABC News packages instead.

Unfortunately a lot of them are owned by Sinclair, so you still get the reactionary opinions, just in smaller doses from a different company.
