I'm looking to improve my listening in Turkish, but I find it extremely helpful to have a
script of the audio when I'm listening. Back when I was learning Spanish, there was a
helpful site (practicaespanol.com) that gave free easy to read articles in Spanish with
audio.
So I'm wondering if anyone knows a similar site for Turkish?
Thanks!
(p.s, kind of related, I would like to request a compilation of learning resources for
individual languages on this forum. This would help people a TON)

I've had trouble finding a good Turkish RSS feed myself. Seems hard to find a decent
podcast.

http://tr.euronews.net/ has audio/video in Turkish
with matching text.
For Turkish podcasts, I'd check out the Deutsche Welle podcasts in Turkish, the VOA
podcasts in Turkish, SWR's program "Köln Radyosu", SBS Radio's Turkish broadcast and TRT
(Turkish Radio & Television) podcasts.

The Turkish-German podcasts are a great idea -- a great tip for me, thanks! From what I can tell, it's mostly German news from a Turkish perspective.
I can confirm that podcasts for foreign speakers are tough to find. I ended up landing in a forum with someone asking the exact same question and followed this tip: Masallar Dinyari. Stories for children with transcript/audio
