Hi all,
I tried to access CNN via the Roku player as I usually do, and today there was an update about their "new and improved" menu. However, it's not improved; I can't access anything and just see a black screen with some menu text, but no pictures.
Any help?
Edit: It doesn't work on my Roku TV either!
Same here. They broke something today.
Re-starting doesn't help.
Delete/reinstall doesn't help.
All other apps stream fine. It's not us!
Good to know I'm not the only one!
I tried everything the internet said to do (restarted router, etc). Disney+, etc is fine; only CNN isn't working.
At least when it's froze they can't tell any lies....lol.
Any help

Deleting CNN, restarting, adding CNN back in did not work for me
This solution is not working, it doesn’t fix the issue! All of it happened today after a new update on their navigation menu! Please find a solution for it
Of course I tried all of this before posting here. It's the CNN Roku app's fault; everything else works fine!
It happened to me just day too. I’ve tried everything, deleted and reinstalled, unplugged and plugged router/modem and tv back and nothing, still doesn’t work. Please provide us with a fixable solution for it!
thank you
I tried everything too and its now working. HELP.
