Quick Look: NewsON has a library of local news channels from around the country offering "live and time-shifted local newscasts, local news clips, and staff-curated compilations related to breaking news events".
The channel starts out with a live stream from the closest available news feed based on your location. If you want to choose a different station, NewsON allows you to change it using the arrow keys on your remote - first select a geographic area of the county then select an available city (not all U.S. cities have newscasts on this channel). If you decide to watch the current station you can watch the available stream or use the arrow keys and choose "Clips" which allows you to skip to specific news stories. Using the * key allows you to turn closed captioning on and off. The fast-forward and rewind buttons will allow you to move through a newscast.
