video clips on Safari and Firefox

I have a late 2016 MBP running Catalina with all up to date. I use Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. The news clips on Fox News won't play on the first two browsers. The screen opens, and when I hit play I get the lifelong spinning circle of loading but no action. I have tried reactivating Shockwave Flash on both browsers to no avail. All works as it should on Chrome. Everything on the Web is out of date. What gives?
