For example, most of the channels for the tournament, including TNT, TBS and TruTV, are on Sling’s Orange tier. Normally that tier is $40 a month, but in March, it’d be $20 for new customers.

To get CBS without an antenna, you can also sign up for Paramount+, which currently offers a seven-day free trial.
