An Apple TV+ subscription will give you access to Apple Original TV shows and movies, but not the news.

Some stations may have a smart TV app that is available for your TV model or TV-connected streaming device. These can be local, or nation-wide with local segments.

Many TV networks (NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, etc.) require a pay TV provider. That is their business model.

Alternative to YouTube TV, you can consider these subscription-based online-streaming non-cable TV providers (in the US): Hulu, Sling TV, fuboTV, Philo, DirecTV Stream (and maybe Pluto TV, Xumo to some extent). Several of these should have an app for your TV.

Over-the-air digital signals through an antenna can be an option. Often overlooked, but still viable.
