Quick Answer: You can stream Fox News online without cable using DirecTV Stream. Sign up for a five-day free trial here.


Fox News is one of the most-watched TV channels in the country, with a partisan viewership of all adult ages, and important programming like 2024 presidential election debates. But, there’s one big roadblock for cord-cutters: It’s only available as a traditional TV channel. Luckily, however, if you’ve ditched the box or satellite you can still watch Fox News online without cable. Here’s a quick guide on how to stream Fox News, including an easy way to get Fox News for free.

How to Watch Fox News Without Cable

Unlike some other TV channels, Fox News does not simulcast its programming through any on-demand streaming services like Peacock or Paramount+. If you want to watch Fox News without cable, you’ll need to get a live TV streaming service that carries the channel. Below are some of our favorite live TV streaming services that offer Fox News streams, including two with free trials.

Editor’s Pick: DirecTV Stream

Most Affordable: Sling Blue

Free Trial: fubo

All-in-One Streaming: Hulu + Live TV

Stream Fox News on DirecTV Stream

With high-quality streams and a great channel lineup (especially for sports fans), DirecTV Stream is typically our top suggestion for anyone looking to get a live TV streaming service. DTV Stream’s service’s Entertainment package (its most affordable plan) includes Fox News and more than 75 other popular channels like CNN, CNBC, and MSNBC. The package starts with a five-day free trial and then costs $79.99 a month after that.

Stream Fox News on Sling Blue

Sling is a more affordable live TV streaming service that also carries Fox News. You’ll need Sling Blue to access the channel. This package starts at $40 a month and comes with 42 channels total, including local channels in most areas and other news channels like CNN and MSNBC.

Stream Fox News on fubo

Another great live TV streaming service is fubo, which delivers Fox News in all of its packages. fubo’s most affordable package is its Pro plan, which carries a whopping 172 channels (CNN, CNBC, and MSNBC are also included). That plan costs $79.99 a month after a free trial.

Stream Fox News on Hulu + Live TV

Hulu + Live TV will also let you stream Fox News without cable. We’re big fans of Hulu + Live TV as an all-in-one streaming package, as a single $76.99/month subscription gets you access to more than 90 live TV channels, the whole on-demand Hulu library, ESPN+, and Disney+.

NOTE: All of these streaming services will let you connect to foxnews.com livestreams. Just head to the website, log in with your streaming service account credentials, and enjoy Fox News livestreams online at no additional cost.

How to Get Fox News for Free

Unlike most cable or satellite services, you can sign up for a free trial to DirecTV Stream or fubo for instant access to live TV — all without paying anything.

That’s That Me Exclusive: Where to Buy Every Edition of Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Short n’ Sweet’ Album

That’s That Me Exclusive: Where to Buy Every Edition of Sabrina Carpenter’s ‘Short n’ Sweet’ Album

“I reckon it’s.. officially short n’ sweet month💋💋💋,” Sabrina Carpenter wrote online, weeks before dropping her highly anticipated new album. Fans can now pick up her sixth studio LP, Short n’ Sweet, online and on shelves now in a slew of exclusive vinyl variants. Staying true to its title, the 36-minute Short n’ Sweet includes tracks like “Taste,” Slim Pickins,” “Good Graces,” and, of course, “Please Please Please” and “Espresso.”

“This project is quite special to me and I hope it’ll be something special to you too,” Carpenter wrote online after debuting the Short n’ Sweet album cover and title in June.

“Short, sweet, has made an extraordinary album,” Taylor Swift shared of Short n’ Sweeton Aug. 23 on her Instagram Stories with checkmarks by each line.

Carpenter, who will embark on a sold-out North American tour in support of the album later this year, has taken over our playlists this summer, with chart-topping hits “Please Please Please,” and the undeniably catchy “Espresso.” (“I decided to put that burden on other people,” Carpenter told Rolling Stone earlier this year.)

And while everyone from your uncle to your BFF quotes its chorus with lyrics like “that’s that me espresso” every time they enter the coffee shop, Carpenter somehow followed it up with an equally quotable Short n’ Sweet track (“please don’t embarrass me, motherf-cker”). The Jack Antonoff-produced “Please Please Please” has garnered over hundreds of millions of streams alone, and propelled Carpenter to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 after it hit streaming services this summer.

“There’s like an Olivia Newton [John] feeling, there’s a Dolly feeling, there’s an incredibly super modern pop feeling,” Antonoff previously told Rolling Stone. “The little vocal runs she does are so bizarre and unique — they’re doing this really odd, classic, almost yodel-y country thing. She’s becoming one of the biggest young pop stars, and that song is such a statement of ­expressing yourself, not just lyrically, but sonically.”

If the tracks’ success are any indication, Carpenter’s new LP, Short N’ Sweet, is destined to become one of the biggest albums of 2024. Instead of releasing just one edition of her studio project, the “Espresso” hitmaker followed the lead of other pop superstars like Taylor Swift and Billie Eilish and dropped several exclusive editions of the album.

Sabrina Carpenter Is Viscously Clever and Done With Love Triangles on ‘Short N’ Sweet’: 5 Takeaways

After Sabrina Carpenter’s summer takeover with “Espresso” and “Please Please Please,” the anticipation for Short n’ Sweet was at an all-time high. On her sixth album, the pop singer keeps the surprises coming as she delivers a masterclass in clever songwriting and hops between R&B and folk-pop with ease. Carpenter writes about the frustration of modern-day romance, all the while cementing herself as a pop classic. Here’s everything we gathered from the new project.

Please Please Please Don’t Underestimate Her Humor

Carpenter gave us a glimpse of her humor on singles “Espresso” and “Please Please Please” — she’s working late because she’s a singer; ceiling fans are a pretty great invention! But no one could have guessed how downright hilarious she is on Short n’ Sweet, delivering sugary quips like “The Lord forgot my gay awakenin’” (“Slim Pickins”) and “How’s the weather in your mother’s basement?” (“Needless to Say”). She’s also adorably nerdy, fretting about grammar (“This boy doesn’t even know/The difference between ‘there,’ ‘their’ and ‘they are!’”) and getting Shakespearian (“Where art thou? Why not uponeth me?”). On “Juno,” she even takes a subject as serious as pregnancy and twists it into a charming pop culture reference for the ages: “If you love me right, then who knows?/I might let you make me Juno.” It’s official: Do not underestimate Ms. Carpenter’s pen. — A.M.

RFK Jr. Suspends Campaign, Endorses Trump

RFK Jr. Suspends Campaign, Endorses Trump

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has suspended his 2024 presidential campaign, and according to a court filing in Pennsylvania on Friday will throw his weight behind former President Donald Trump.

Multiple news outlets reported on Wednesday that independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr. was planning to drop out of the race and endorse Trump. He clarified at an event in Arizona on Friday that he is not terminating his campaign, only suspending it, and that his name will remain on the ballot in non-battleground states. He said that if enough people still vote for him and Trump and Kamala Harris tie in the Electoral College, he could still wind up in the White House.

The Chicks’ ‘Not Ready to Make Nice’ Has Somehow Become a MAGA Anthem on TikTok

The Chicks’ ‘Not Ready to Make Nice’ Has Somehow Become a MAGA Anthem on TikTok

One little funny/bizarre/horrifying thing about the internet is the way it offers up everything and, in doing so, makes it possible to strip anything of its history. But to paraphrase Kamala Harris, you didn’t just fall out of the coconut tree. “You exist in the context of all in which you live and what came before you” — wise words worth heeding, especially for all the Trump voters and conservatives making TikToks with the Chicks’ “Not Ready to Make Nice.”

Over the past month or so, “Not Ready to Make Nice” has become an unexpected MAGA anthem of sorts, meant to express a certain rage at liberals supposedly telling conservatives what to do all the time (the past few Supreme Court terms notwithstanding, apparently). Young women especially have taken the song as a way to push back against the possibility of Harris becoming the first female president.
