CNN, as one of the most trusted news sources in the United States, provides comprehensive and relatively unbiased coverage of world events as they unfold. We’ll go over exactly how to watch a CNN live stream in this section.
However, while it is relatively simple to access CNN from the United States, you may encounter difficulties if you are outside the country – even if you pay for the network. So, in this section, we’ll show you how to watch CNN live from anywhere in the world.
In South Africa, you can watch a free live stream of CNN’s news coverage, but it isn’t available everywhere and doesn’t offer as much flexibility as the paid CNN Go service.
If you have cable or an OTT provider like Sling and are outside of the US, the best way to get access is to use the best VPN to change your location. All you have to do is connect to a US VPN(opens in new tab) server and then visit CNN as if you were at home. Then sign in with your information and start watching.
