Helsingin Uutiset

[1] Since summer 2019 the editor of Helsingin Uutiset has been Karri Kannala, who has also worked as a local leader of Etelä-Suomen Media.

Sister newspapers in the capital area include Länsiväylä, Nurmijärven Uutiset and Vantaan Sanomat.

The online readership of Helsingin Uutiset has grown greatly in the 2010s and it is now part of the ten most-read news media in Finland.

During Karri Kannala's period as editor the direction changed and the newspaper announced in November 2019 that it would return to local editions, of which there have been six since early 2020: east, northeast, southeast, central, west and downtown.

Helsingin Uutiset is the largest free newspaper in Finland in terms of number of readers.
