What it actually is
Finland's plain-language newspaper covers domestic news, sport, culture and world affairs in selkokieli, and every article on the site has a 'kuuntele uutinen' audio version. It gives you more variety and more human-interest writing than the Yle bulletin alone. The website is free; the printed paper is a paid subscription that supports the whole operation.
