Maybe there's no news what news provider do you have set up in the Alexa app if you never set it up you should set one up I don't know what Amazon uses for its default news provider in any case you should still set one up there are many of them to choose from you can also enable a news skill if you want i don't really use them on my Echo mainly because some of the news are either too short or too long I can't get good information anyway I just get my news on news websites or on TV
