CNN from Tunein on Google devices not working

I listen to the free version of TuneIn occasionally on Macbook and Android phone, and I don't see CNN on there at all, but it does have BBC World, Fox News, MSNBC, ESPN, Deutsche Welle, etc.

 

just confirmed that cnn will not play when you ask google assistant......weird. but you should be able to stream it thru the hub or home by just going into the app and play CNN.

 

That just gives a message "This station is not available in your region.". Which is probably why I don't have CNN in the TuneIn apps(Android and MacOS). I'm using a VPN, because otherwise TuneIn wouldn't be available to me at all.

 

live tv of cnn will not happen unless you have something like directv or other cable companies that allow you to stream live broadcasts via there apps. i have a sirius subscription and i can get live audio of cnn broadcasts.

but like i said you should be able to get tunein to play cnn.....you just can't do it verbally.
