TV-nytt

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TV-nytt is the name of the daily television news programmes on the Finland-Swedish TV channel FST5.

TV-nytt first aired on 5 April 1965 and has since provided daily news for the Swedish speaking population in Finland. In the evening TV-nytt has three regular broadcasts, plus one 30 second summary at around 17.45. The main bulletin, since the ending of analogue transmissions, is at 20.00. Prior to the end of analogue broadcasting in Finland on 31 August 2007, TV-nytt's 18.15 edition was the main bulletin and was simulcast on YLE TV1.

Between 1997-2005, Swedish-language news called 'Morgonnytt' (Morning news) was broadcast during the otherwise Finnish-language YLE breakfast tv programme Aamu-TV (morning-tv). This was discontinued as part of YLE's cost cutting exercise, despite the fact that Morgonnytt often received more viewers than the evening TV-nytt broadcasts. This move has meet with criticism from some parts of the Finland-Swedish community.
