The Trump administration has been talking up a potential TikTok deal this weekend, with President Donald Trump telling Fox News on Sunday that Rupert Murdoch and his son Lachlan are "probably" going to be involved.

The two countries have been working on a way to save TikTok's U.S. business, after the TikTok ban in January over national security concerns.

The White House press secretary said Americans will hold six of seven board seats in the restructured TikTok, and the video app’s algorithm will be U.S.-controlled.
