Have you heard the news yet vs Have you heard the news so far

Both phrases are correct, but they have slightly different meanings and contexts. 'Have you heard the news yet?' is asking if the person has heard the news up to the present moment, while 'Have you heard the news so far?' implies that there may be more news to come. The choice between the two depends on whether you are asking about the current status of the news or if there is more to be expected.
