FSN Chicago is a defunct American regional sports network that was owned by Cablevision for most of its history (from 1987 to 2005); News Corporation acquired a minority ownership interest in the network in 1997, which Cablevision bought out in 2005. Based in Chicago, the network was affiliated with SportsChannel from 1987 to 1997, when it became an affiliate of Fox Sports Net.

The network carried games from most of the Chicago area's major league sports teams including the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox Major League Baseball franchises; the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks; the NBA's Chicago Bulls; the Chicago Fire of Major League Soccer; and the Arena Football League's Chicago Rush. It also aired local and national collegiate sports, including those sourced from sister network Fox Sports Detroit.

FSN Chicago launched in April 1982 as Sportsvision, a joint venture between Jerry Reinsdorf (owner of the Chicago White Sox, who at the time, had recently also became the new owner of the Chicago Bulls), Eddie Einhorn (co-owner of White Sox with Reinsdorf, and who also worked as a television sports producer and promoter) and Fred Eychaner (owner, at the time, of independent station WPWR, then on channel 60, now a MyNetworkTV owned-and-operated station on channel 50).
