News breaks at a dizzying pace, and it's now more important than ever to stay informed. As long as you have decent internet, you don't have to subscribe to a cable TV provider or live TV streaming service to watch the latest TV news coverage for free. A wide array of free services stream live news every day, from the latest on COVID-19 to what's happening in the world of business and entertainment.
The services below, presented in alphabetical order, consist of standard broadcast-style and cable news as well as international and business-centric options. All of these services offer content on their own websites, but many are also available on streaming TV devices (Roku, Fire TV and Apple TV), smart TVs and mobile apps for phones and tablets.

if you aren't using a news service's own app, the two main options are Pluto TV and Sling TV Free. Both of these offer a familiar, cable-like experience with a program guide and on-demand content. Together they have the greatest number of news channels, and these are streamable via their collective sites as well as on video-streaming apps (the Roku Channel is only available on Roku devices).
There are other news services available, including podcasts via the likes of Stitcher, institutions like NPR or a wealth of radio stations. And if you want more local live TV options you could also hang an indoor antenna, a simple process that lets you watch news and other programming free from broadcasters in your area.
