They use "TV Eyes" a service that records all cable channels constantly and allows you to search through them and download clips of that segment.

It seems there was a lawsuit that they won, then lost on appeal, and then the Supreme Court decided not to let it escalate further.

> This case stems from a copyright infringement case filed by Fox News back in 2013 against TVEyes [...]

> On December 3rd [2018], the U.S. Supreme Court denied a petition for writ of certiorari in TVEyes, Inc. v. Fox News Network, LLC, declining the opportunity to decide what would have been the Court’s first case on fair use in a copyright context in 20 years. [1]
