Can someone please advise as to how to put a scrolling news ticker on your site?
I need one for a sidebar but I cant find any help on getting one or how to add it to a page.
It must be ad free 
There’s the accessibility issue – screen readers tend to choke on scrolling text.
Easiest way is to use something like a jQuery script. I just Googled “jquery scrolling news ticker” and got this:

Here’s a nice vertical one:

Do you have any experience with jQuery? It’s very easy to set up.
