NewsLive is an independent guide to watching live news channels from the United Kingdom, Europe, the United States and the Middle East. We explain the official ways to watch: broadcaster apps and websites, free streaming services, live TV packages, and the steps to set them up on the devices people actually use.
Why NewsLive exists
Finding a reliable live stream of a news channel is harder than it should be. Channels change names, apps change regions, and free options appear and disappear. Many people living abroad also want to follow news from home. Search results are full of outdated pages and unofficial streams. We wanted one place that gives a clear, current and honest answer.
What we cover
- Channel guides: how to watch channels such as BBC News, Sky News, Al Jazeera English, DW, France 24, CNN and Fox News.
- Watch on TV: step-by-step setup on Roku, Fire TV, Android TV, smart TVs, phones and computers.
- Watch abroad: official ways to follow news from home while living or travelling in another country.
- Guides: cord-cutting advice and side-by-side comparisons of news channels and streaming options.
How we research and update guides
Every guide is written by the NewsLive Editorial Team and checked against primary sources: broadcaster websites, official app store listings and the channel line-ups published by streaming platforms. We list the sources at the end of each guide. Prices and availability change often, so we date time-sensitive details and update guides when something changes. We only point readers to official, legal ways to watch. Read more in our Editorial Policy and Corrections Policy.
Independence
NewsLive is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of the broadcasters or platforms we write about. Channel names and trademarks belong to their owners. We are developing our own licensed news streaming app for Android, Roku, Fire TV and desktop; it is not yet available, and our guides will always cover other official options as well. See our Advertising Policy for how the site is funded.
