Ever wondered if your TV remote could do more than just engage in an eternal battle with the cushions? Well, LG is stepping up its game with a new remote that has a dedicated news button, because who doesn’t want to stay informed while binging the latest drama?

Starting next year, LG Smart TVs will roll out a nifty remote featuring the precious Haystack News button. This isn’t just any button—this is the gateway to over 400 local, national, and international news sources, all for free! Yes, your remote can now bridge the gap between world events and your couch potato life.

It gets better: if you’re sporting webOS 25 or later, you’ll unlock a glorious News Portal. Picture this: live news, podcasts, and juicy content from all your favorite major news outlets, at the click of a button.

In a world where TikTok dances and celebrity gossip often take precedence, it’s a relief to see tech companies making it easy for us to get our news fix without getting off the sofa. Now you can reduce your scrolling time and impress your friends with your well-informed opinions instead!

So, is this innovation going to lead to a sharp increase in couch surfing while staying informed, or will we simply become very knowledgeable couch potatoes? Only time (and Netflix) will tell! What’s your latest news on news consumption in the era of binge-watching?
