This database is available also in English. If you are interested in genealogic research I recommend you to check http://www.genealogia.fi , which has excellent links, too. Another useful address http://www.familysearch.org , which is run by the Church of Jesus Christ…

I suggest you visit a public library in Helsinki and search in HS Aikakone https://www.hs.fi/aikakone/.
HS Aikakone contains articles published in Helsingin Sanomat newspaper from years 1904-1997. Unfortunately the user interface is only in Finnish but I am sure you can get some help from the library staff. HS Aikakone can only be used in the library premises unless you have an own subscription of HS Digi.
