get_live_news
Get the latest live financial news from major sources (Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Bloomberg, Financial Times, CNBC, Reuters, Yahoo Finance). Returns pinned headlines (top stories, at offset=0 only) and recent news cards. Each card includes source name, timestamp (ET), title, full article text, and relevant stock tickers. By default, cross-source duplicates of the same story are folded into one card and the other outlets covering it are listed under 'Also reported by' (pass clusterDedupe=false to get every outlet's card separately). Use the 'before' cursor from previous responses to paginate forward through older news.
