They often have a Swedish version, so if the Russian text is too hard I might be able to use that. Great tip.
Novosti YLE daily TV-news Novosti Yle: 23.04.2014 16.50 | Tv | Areena | yle.fi started about a year ago and I think radio news have been on air for decades. Novosti has been a great source for me in my efforts to learn Russian, because it subtitled in Finnish. I think YLE is relatively objective and I am happy to support it with my minimal tax effort. I also watch and read Vesti, but my language skills are not good enough to keep in pace with their live news.

I want to thank everyone who have written here about the situation in Ukraine, because every news channel has some amount of propaganda. Here also are many different opinions, but I find this site very helpful in understanding what is going on. I will not make any prophecies, I simply don't have enough knowledge, but I hope for no more violence and I hope for a reasonable welfare for everybody. That sounds naive hippie-shit, but nothing, really nothing is worth killing people.

Edit: Sorry, that the link is off-topic... Yesterdays news happened to concern only Finnish things, but there is normally foreign news, too, and from the bottom of the page you can find older broadcasts.
