The most consequential State of the Union address of the Biden presidency is scheduled for this week! The 2024 State of the Union address airs at 9 p.m. ET on Thursday, March 7, and the speech will be carried by each of the major cable news channels: CNN, Fox News and MSNBC, all of which are available on Sling TV’s Blue plan. The least expensive way to watch this year’s State of the Union without cable is a Subscription to Sling TV.

How to Watch 2024 State of the Union Address

About 2024 State of the Union Address

The State of the Union is the President’s chance to update the American people on what’s going on with their government, both at home and abroad. Issues like the current conflict between Israel and Hamas, the climate, problems at the border between the United States and Mexico and the upcoming 2024 Presidential election are all sure to be touched on by President Biden.

Viewers who opt to watch the speech as well as the traditional opposition response (which will be delivered this year by Republican Senator Katie Britt of Alaska) on Sling TV can choose between CNN, Fox or MSNBC. This allows them to see what analysts whose political opinions align with their own thought of the speech, as well as the opposition opinion if they so desire.

What Election News Channels Are Available on Sling Blue?

Sling’s Blue plan is excellent for election coverage, no matter which political opinions they happen to carry. Sling Blue offers MSNBC for viewers who lean to the left, Fox News for right-wing audiences, and CNN for viewers who want to yell at their election news, no matter which party they support.

Sling subscribers also get Bloomberg TV, in case the above-mentioned news networks don’t provide enough financial context to the election horserace. Bloomberg is available in both Sling base packages, as is the History Channel, which will surely be offering election-themed programming in the leadup to November.

Sling Blue customers can also subscribe to the News Extra add-on pack, which comes with eight additional channels for an extra $6 per month. The News Extra pack carries BBC World News, NewsNation, HLN, Newsmax, and more.

How Much Does Sling TV Cost?

Sling’s Blue plan costs $40 per month normally. In all, this package contains around 40 channels depending on the market, and even allows users in some areas to watch local affiliates of ABC, Fox, and NBC. If you live in one of these areas, you’ll get even more election coverage of local races and ballot initiatives that will affect you the most.

Politicalphiles who want to get the channels from both Sling Orange and Sling Blue don’t have to worry about doubling their monthly price. The cost to get the channels from both plans is just $55 per month, so even with the News Extra add-on, you’ll be paying much less for Sling Orange and Blue than for a service like YouTube TV.

Best yet, Sling is offering an excellent deal for new subscribers currently: 50% off your first month of service no matter which plan you choose. There’s no knowing if that deal will still be available come November, but you can take advantage of it now to give Sling a thorough testing and watch the Super Tuesday primaries. The offer will drop your price to just $20 for your first month of Sling service if you sign up for just Sling Blue, or $27.50 if you subscribe to both.

Can You Stream the 2024 State of the Union Address for Free?

Sling TV does not offer a free trial to new subscribers. However, new customers can get 50% off their first month of Sling service for a limited time, making the cost of watching the State of the Union just $20.

What Devices Can You Use to Stream 2024 State of the Union Address on Sling TV?

Sling TV is available to stream on most devices, including Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV, Google Chromecast, Roku, Android TV, iPhone/iPad, Android Phone/Tablet, Mac, Windows, Xbox, LG Smart TV, Samsung Smart TV, Sony Smart TV, and VIZIO Smart TV.
