DIRECTV STREAM has everything — including Fox News. No matter which plan you choose (and there are four, in a wide range of prices and channel varieties), you’ll get this channel so you can keep up with the news and the inauguration. With DIRECTV STREAM’s packages, the higher tier you pick, the more channels you get, so if you bump all the way up to Premier, you’re getting a huge number of news, sports and entertainment channels to keep up with everything.
Also available in the DIRECTV STREAM channel lineup is C-SPAN, E!, Food Network, History Channel, USA and many more. While DIRECTV STREAM is a bit pricier than the competition, it does come with wide-ranging channels, which lines up with the price tag. Plus, customers get unlimited cloud DVR, which helps round out that price tag.
For those who don’t want to spend a ton of money each month on their streaming service, Sling TV is the way to go. It’s the cheapest option of the bunch, and customers will usually find a sign-up deal on top of an already-low price. Fox News is included in the Sling Blue package, which also includes Bravo, USA, FS1 and in some geographic regions, your local news networks like ABC and NBC (for a slightly higher price point).
The drawback of Sling TV, of course, is that the channel packages are much smaller than the competition, but that’s what comes with the smaller price tag. However, you’re getting a highly curated selection of channels, so you might be getting exactly what you’re looking for, for a fraction of the price that some of the other streaming services charge. Sling Blue also includes three simultaneous streams and 50 hours of cloud DVR.
Fubo is designed for sports fans, but you can also catch the news here too. Fox News is available on all of Fubo’s subscription plans, so you don’t have to worry about missing out on the channel if you’re trying to decide which plan to pick.
Speaking of sports, Fubo also offers a bevy of sports channels for fans to stream, including FS1 and FS2, ESPN and ESPN2, NFL Network and many more. Even if you’re not an avid sports fan, the usual channels for staying in the know on pop culture and news are available: ABC, NBC, CBS and more (where available). Plus, Fubo offers unlimited Cloud DVR at no extra charge for all plans.
Hulu + Live TV is the perfect option for those who want a good mix of live TV channels plus plenty of options for when there’s nothing to actually watch on TV. Hulu + Live TV customers have access to both live TV and the on-demand library so you have a lot to choose from. Fox News is available, of course, but if you need a break from the news (or sports or your favorite gardening show), you can flip over to an award-winning on-demand show or movie instead.
You can also choose from one of Hulu + Live TV’s bundle deals that include ESPN Plus, Disney Plus and Max to get even more bang for your buck. These offer more streaming services for a fraction of the price you’d pay if you subscribed to all the services individually. Plus, of course, you’re getting all that extra content to keep you occupied on a rainy day (or a sunny day that demands a binge-watching session). Hulu + Live TV also includes unlimited cloud DVR.
YouTube TV is simple and effective when it comes to streaming. It’s loaded with channels in a wide-ranging variety of options. Customers will find news, sports, entertainment and everything in between. Not only is Fox News an option, but so is CNN, CNBC and BBC America for even more news gathering. Outside of the news world, customers can check out sports on Big Ten Network and ESPN and watch all their favorite holiday movies on Hallmark Channel and TBS. For family-friendly viewing, there’s Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, Universal Kids and more. YouTube TV also includes unlimited cloud DVR so you can record as much as you want.
The only way you can stream Fox News for free is if you opt for a free trial with one of the live TV streaming services before you actually subscribe. DIRECTV STREAM, Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV and Fubo all offer free trials so you can stream Fox News for free for a few days.
The cheapest option for watching Fox News is with Sling TV. You’ll find Fox News on Sling Blue, which starts at $45.99 per month.
Yes, you can watch Fox News on multiple devices. All of the streaming services that offer Fox News allow you to simultaneously stream on multiple devices in the household.
