Dish Network’s Sling TV is gearing up for a big election news cycle, with the addition of Fox News, MSNBC and CNN’s HLN to its live TV streaming service. But the change comes with a price increase, the second since its launch almost five years ago.
Subscriptions to the multiscreen Blue plan will rise to $30 a month from $25, Sling said Monday in a statement. The sports-loaded Orange plan will also increase by $5 to $30 a month. The combination package, which was $40, will now be $45 a month, up $5.
Sling TV has 2.7 million subscribers.
