Is there a way I can have the News read out loud on my Apple devices?

Is there a way I can have the News read out loud on my Apple devices? If so, please tell me how to turn that on. I am not interested in Siri or dictation or any software listening to me and recording me. I am interested in having my Apple devices talk to me and read the News, Books and any document I open regardless as to whether it is in PDF or Pages or Word Doc format. I would also like to have features to control reading on my Apple devices, like go forward or go back and re-read a sentence, paragraph, chapter. To be able to point and click and have a document read from there would be great so I can skip ahead and skip back. Speed control to read faster or slower would be a good control to have too. As my eyes get old and go blind it will be nice to be able to continue to read and learn as long as possible. If all of this is available, please reply and tell me how to configure this and use it. I have been looking and cannot find out how to do this. It would be great if the macOS and iOS operating systems offered this so that I won't have to figure out how to do this in each app. A consistent implementation for everything that can be read would be fantastic.
