CBSN is available online, phones, tablets, Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, Android TV, and many other platforms, making CBSN one of the most cord cutter friendly news service available.
CBSN has already seen a slow and steady growth in their live coverage of events. It is expected that CBSN will start to hire new anchors to host new shows, helping make CBSN a news service that can stand up to any cable TV news service.
