Sling TV is a great option because it's the most affordable service on this list, but they only offers NBC and Fox in a very limited number of markets. Their affordable Sling Blue plan include CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC though, so it's a good option if you aren't looking for local coverage. A free trial is also available.
