Microsoft has created a new rolling news list for Windows 10, reports The Verge.
The news list scrolls on top of the Windows 10 taskbar and can display headlines from over 4,500 different news sources as well as data from the world’s stock markets.

You can customize whether the news list should be text only or also have images, as well as how the list should be positioned on the screen. The list can also be minimized if necessary. For some reason, it is currently not possible to select news sources yourself, but instead shows regional news based on your location
The beta version of News Bar is already available to download in some regions. However, not in Sweden so far. Below you can see an example of how it might look:
