Inspired by an answer, I wonder if there are good places to watch simple-language multimedia on current topics with subtitles or transcription (and ideally English translation).

For example, Spiegel TV provides a lot of informative content, but it's not easy for me to understand as videos don't seem to exactly correspond to articles.

What I have in mind is something like Deutsche Welle's Langsam gesprochene Nachrichten but longer, with video, and with vocabulary tailored for beginners.
