You could set up an RSS feed and scroll through. Some news orgs also split it up by topic.

I tried a few, but the problem isn't the rss feed, but rather the news websites themselves. Most stuff is either corpo garbage, clickbait, or just plain irrelevant to me. Sites like reddit at least gave that little bit of filter so that the most egregious crap would not reach my feed. It wasn't perfect, but it worked.
