CNN is a news network founded in 1980, now owned by Warner Bros. Discovery. It delivers news through its website at cnn.com, mobile apps, live television broadcasts, and streaming platforms. Problems usually show up in a few predictable places. The website or app may fail to load articles. Live stream playback can stall, buffer, or drop to lower quality. Video-on-demand clips sometimes refuse to start. Authentication with a TV provider can fail during sign-in. Before reporting an issue, try a few basics. Refresh the page or restart the app. Check your own internet connection and try another device. If you use the live stream, confirm your TV provider subscription is active. Clearing the app cache or updating to the latest app version resolves many playback problems.

Questions

Is CNN down right now?

According to reports on this page, CNN looks fine for most people. Isolated failures still happen — report yours if you are stuck.

When was the last mass outage?

We do not have a recorded mass outage for CNN yet.

Why won't CNN videos play for me?

Playback issues are often local. Try restarting the app, clearing your browser cache, or checking your internet connection. If a live stream requires a TV provider login, verify that your subscription is active and that you are signed in correctly.

Is the CNN app different from the website?

They offer much of the same news coverage, but the app adds features like push notifications and offline reading on mobile. Both depend on the same underlying services, so a disruption may affect one, the other, or both at the same time.
