ANNOUNCEMENTS

Watch Election Coverage Free with Sling TV

Nov 07, 2016 by Glenn Eisen

Ever since we shattered our all-time viewership records in the first Presidential debate, consumers have been asking – when’s the next free preview? We now know that Sling TV customers are highly engaged with the Presidential election, so we’ve decided to make election night completely free. After all, this only happens once every four years. Because we love giving our customers what they want, consumers can watch the Presidential election coverage free, on us – all day and night of the election. And this time, we’re throwing in something “Extra.”

Tuesday’s free preview includes Sling Orange and News Extra, meaning you get news from CNN, TheBlaze, Bloomberg, Newsy, Cheddar, and HLN all in one app, plus different perspectives from world news sources like BBC World News, Fusion, France 24, euronews, News 18, NDTV 24x7 and RT Network.

We know the whole world has been paying attention to this Presidential race, so we want to give new and existing Sling TV customers a global view on minute-to-minute election updates.

Watch American history in the making, LIVE

Free preview viewers can watch the election results as they come in, whether you’re at home or on the go, on all Sling TV supported devices, including televisions.

All of Sling Orange, FREE

The free preview will run from 9 a.m. ET Tuesday, November 8 through 4 a.m. ET Wednesday, November 9, allowing viewers to watch pre- and post-coverage of the election.

No credit card or payment required

The best part of this is, only a valid email address and password is needed. New Sling TV customers can sign up for the free preview beginning Tuesday at 9 a.m. ET, by visiting www.sling.com/watchfree. Must be 18 years or older to sign up for the free preview.

If you’re a current subscriber to Sling TV, we’ve got great news for you too! All subscribers to Sling Orange or Sling Blue will also receive a free preview of News Extra from 9 a.m. ET Tuesday, November 8 through 4 a.m. ET Wednesday, November 9.
