News widget not working on iOS 14

I update my iPhone 8 a few days ago to iOS 14, and there seems to be a problem with my Apple News widget. When I add the widget to my Home Screen, and select "Top Stories", it appears blank and says "No Stories". However, when I select "Topic", I can see (most) topics fine. How can I fix this?

Hi - I had same problem and looking through how beta users solved this, I found this worked.

  • remove the widget
  • delete the News app
  • download News app from app store
  • open news app
  • add the widget
