Okay, social media is a sketchy place to get your news—make sure you’re choosing a reputable news source instead of Stinky Joe’s McNews Opinions.
YouTube

Use free trials of live TV streaming services
Although many live TV streaming services no longer offer free trials, these ones still do. But of course, these only work for 5–7 days unless you <cough> figure out a way to exploit the free trials. Or stick with Sling Free, which is basically an ad-supported free trial for Sling TV (with limited content).
- DIRECTV STREAM: 5-day trial
- fuboTV: 7-day trial
- Philo: 7-day trial
- Sling TV: No trial, but you can watch immediately via Sling Free
